Les Épopées is a dynamic French ensemble specializing in Baroque music, particularly reviving the drama and grandeur of 17th- and 18th-century operas and sacred works. Founded and led by conductor Stéphane Fuget, the group brings fiery energy to historically informed performances, often spotlighting French composers like Lully and Charpentier alongside Italian giants like Monteverdi. Their recent releases—including Lully’s *Alceste* and *Te Deum*, Monteverdi’s *L’Orfeo*, and rare gems by Chabanceau de La Barre—showcase their knack for balancing epic theatricality with intimate, playful moments (like drinking songs and pastoral airs). With period instruments and meticulous attention to Baroque style, Les Épopées makes centuries-old music feel fresh, proving that love, tragedy, and celebration never go out of fashion.
