Violinist Renaud Capuçon Has Raised €100,000 Towards Notre Dame Restoration

Violinist Renaud Capuçon has completed a six cathedral concert tour, where all profits will be donated towards the restoration of the Notre Dame Cathedral

French violinist Renaud Capuçon has this week completed a six cathedral concert tour in Chartres, Reims, Lyon, Paris, Amiens and Bordeaux with all money raised to be donated towards the restoration of the Notre Dame Cathedral, in Paris.

The 43-year-old virtuoso was joined by close collaborators, violists Gérard Caussé and Adrien La Marca and cellists Julia Hagen, Victor Julien-Lafferiere and Edgar Moreau.

"Playing Bach in these sacred places has given me the certainty that music soothes the spirit … I’m heading home with a light heart," Renaud said this week.

The iconic Paris cathedral was destroyed by a large fire in April earlier this year.
