Maison des Choeurs is a concert venue in Montpellier, in the Occitania region of southern France, devoted to choral music and vocal performance. It is found at Place Albert 1er, in the 34090 postcode area of the city.
What kind of visit it makes
The venue is intimate, and its setting is built around the acoustics of the voice. For a visitor, this means an evening of live singing in a relatively small room, where the sound and the performers are close at hand. It suits anyone who enjoys choral music or wants to hear unamplified voices in a local setting.
Why go
- A cultural evening that leaves the city's main stages behind.
- Live vocal performance in a welcoming, human-scale space.
- A chance to see how a Montpellier audience gathers around local choirs and singers.
Because the venue is focused on choral work, the programme you find on the night will shape the atmosphere. If you are interested in singing rather than orchestral or popular concerts, it is a good place to start.
