LILLE NATIONAL ORCHESTRA

Founded in 1976 on the initiative of the regional council for the Nord / Pas-de-Calais and with government support, the Orchestre National de Lille assumes an ambitious artistic programme aiming at the widest possible audience, performing symphonic repertoire, giving prominence to contemporary work and promoting young talent, cultural activities and educational projects. Following the leadership of its Director, Jean-Claude Casadesus, international conductors and soloists join the orchestra in taking music to wherever it may be received, in France and abroad, performing for the more than two hundred urban communities of the Région Nord / Pas-de-Calais. An outstanding ambassador for its region and for French culture throughout four continents and thirty countries, the orchestra has established itself as one of the leading orchestras in France, and is regularly featured in broadcasts on radio and television. Its recordings for Naxos include discs of music by Berlioz, Chausson, Dukas, Milhaud and Canteloube.
