Welcome to the website of the Beynert - Jean Bruyère Choir!
Founded by Jean Bruyère in Freylange near Arlon in 1976, the choir initially took the name of the nearby forest, "Le Beynert". When its conductor died in 1984, the torch was taken up by Hélène Bernardy who... became a permanent member of the Chemnitz Opera and passed the baton to Séverine Delforge who... was admitted to the Royal Academy of Music in London and handed over the direction to Geoffrey Degives who... accepted to the Dutch National Opera Academy in Amsterdam, handed over to François Levaque.
Under the direction of François Levaque, the choir explores the classical repertoire, from the Renaissance to the contemporary era, from Vivaldi to Ramirez, including Gershwin and Vierne. It performs in its province of Luxembourg, but also in the Walloon Region, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, France, Italy, ...
Sometimes the choir is accompanied by soloists, an orchestra, or even organists such as Bérenger Goffette.
And the story continues...after the last concert conducted by François Levaque in Florenville on October 19, 2024, the direction was entrusted to Mérylien Bajot.
Our choir is a member of A Cœur Joie and is open to all.
