The emotions raised by the fire that devastated Notre-Dame Cathedral of Paris, earlier this year, remind us of the profound cultural ties which exist between France and America.
 
To celebrate this common heritage, the Consulate General of France in Boston presents a concert of arias composed and first performed at Paris Notre Dame in the late 12th century, interpreted by the Boston Camerata Ensemble, together with the Choral Fellows of Harvard Memorial Church.
 
This concert will be introduced by a presentation of the current reconstruction efforts by Mr. Michel Picaud, President of the Friends of Notre-Dame de Paris. Prominent Harvard Professors will also share their views on the cultural and historic significance of Notre-Dame in Europe and America.
