Dialogues concert is set for 13 October at Notre-Dame
Dialogues places two choral traditions in the same programme. The Stockholm choir and the Paris cathedral choir are scheduled to perform together in a concert presented by the cathedral music organisation.
The programme is part of the cathedral's 2026 concert calendar. Its setting gives the event a direct connection with a building whose religious and musical functions have continued through many centuries. The concert is an in-person public event, with the organiser's ticket page listing access arrangements for the cathedral.
Dialogues brings two choral traditions to the cathedral
The cathedral's first construction phase began in 1163, when Bishop Maurice de Sully laid the first stone. That phase continued until 1250 and included the choir, the ambulatories, the nave, the main facade and the two western towers.
Later work continued into the fourteenth century. The south transept and its portal were developed between 1267 and 1296, while work on the apse and its chapels continued between 1296 and 1363. These architectural layers form the setting for the 13 October programme, linking a contemporary choral exchange with a building shaped over several centuries. The cathedral's official history records its UNESCO World Heritage classification in 1991.
