In 1934, the Orchestre National de France was established as its country's first permanent orchestra. From the Theatre des Champs-d'Elysees to the world's other prestigious stages, this magnificent orchestra continues to confirm its reputation as France's greatest musical ambassador. The orchestra boasts a fully international repertoire shared through more than 70 concerts a year. Steeped in history, this legendary ensemble has performed under the baton of Toscanini, Stravinsky, Munch, Bernstein, and Maazel to name a few. The orchestra has premiered major works by many of the 20th century's great composers, such as Pierre Boulez, Olivier Messiaen, and Iannis Xenakis. The Washington Post praised the orchestra's "rich sonic palette...rich intensity, warmth, and expressiveness." Mention AtlantaBuzz.com and receive 25% off!
