Lafayette Musicians is a professional classical music orchestra and choir. 

Created in 2022, their name honors the Marquis de la Lafayette, a French hero of the American Revolution, who was the only French person awarded honorary citizenship of the United States of America exactly 20 years ago.

Led by the French conductor Matthieu Peyregne du Motier, the orchestra plays a musical repertoire focused on sacred music. With a particular zoom on early music, which is a specialty of its conductor. With a strong desire of original music restitution, musicians often playing on historic instruments. 

Our aim is to share our 2 passions, Faith and Music.

Music reveals what society is. Today, people hear, whereas they want it or not, music that share values sometimes very far from faith and religion, displaying also time to time very agressive lyrics, sounds and rythms.

We want to enhabce the real and true beauty. To spread the world of God through higher dimension musics. Harmony and lyrics carefully chose, inspired to the greatest composers by the Lord. Music and lyrics that help to understand the meaning of God's Love, life or death. The real subjects that are revealed through the Sacred Music masterpieces.

Mission

We want to share sacred classical music to the most people as possible. We provide to evry concert special dedicated booklets that provide detailed information about the piece played, all translationns, and the links between faith and music. We are convinced that, through all the explanations given, people can really learn about their own Faith and the way the last 4 centuries composers had been inspired by God in their creations.
