Generously without borders, the Jazz and World Music programming at La Seine Musicale blends different generations of artists with multiple musical influences: major international figures, masters of jazz, and emerging artists, as well as unprecedented encounters between the most explosive artists! Groove and improvisation are on the agenda!

Adored in England, famous in the United States and Japan, Stacey Kent had already sold many albums when French audiences discovered her, charmed, in 2003. She has reciprocated their affection: Stacey Kent loves France, its culture, and its songs, which she interprets with passion.

She also has a fondness for standards, the sparkling melodies of Broadway, as well as bossa nova, especially the compositions of Antonio Carlos Jobim. The musicians who accompany her delicately rhythm her singing, improvising closely around the melodies she tastefully selects.

With impeccable diction, Stacey Kent cultivates her voice of an eternal young girl, with a rare clarity. Everything about her exudes freshness, voluptuousness, and zen… with, here and there, a few delightful mischievousness.

La Seine Musicale

Adress:  La Seine Musicale, Île Seguin, 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, France

Auditorium Patrick Devedjian

Nestled like a gem in a case of glass and wood, the Auditorium Patrick Devedjian is the centerpiece of our building. It can accommodate up to 1,150 spectators and is dedicated to acoustic music, featuring the greatest classical ensembles and musicians, foremost among them the resident orchestra: Insula orchestra.

Its appearance is open to interpretation: a bird's nest, a giant liner, "the ball"...

From the outside, its glass facade is protected and powered by a gigantic array of solar panels that moves in synchronization with the sun, overlooking the concrete liner.

From the inside, the 1,150-seat hall awakens our senses. Dedicated to classical music, jazz, and world music concerts, its light blonde wooden ceiling, cardboard tubes, and paper reveal all the secrets of the excellent acoustics of this stage.

 

Its Acoustics

Studied by the Nagata and Jean-Paul Lamoureux firm to ensure the best possible sound reproduction for the audience. All precautions have been taken to guarantee exceptional acoustics with the precision of a musical instrument.

 

Its Design

Modular, its vineyard-style arrangement creates a genuine proximity with the audience surrounding the artists. The interplay of lights, the beauty of materials (wood, mosaics, glass), and the 360° panorama are all designed to match the pleasure of the eyes with that of the ears.

Its design aims to create a sense of visual and acoustic intimacy shared between the audience and the musicians. The atmosphere of the hall is warm, with curved wooden walls and ceiling contributing to the hall’s unique sound identity. Access to the hall is provided on three levels by large suspended walkways offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. These are connected by large staircases forming a continuous promenade around the hall.
