One of the most famous cathedrals in the world reopened this past weekend. Millions of people tuned in to watch the reopening show of Notre-Dame in Paris. The cathedral sadly partially burnt down after a fire in 2019. The event helped people rediscover the cathedral’s unique architecture while spreading a message of inspiration, sharing, and celebration across the world.
Passionate about heritage and an ambassador for French electronic music, Michael Canitrot presented his latest compositions with digital art and light design. It gave Notre-Dame in a magnificent new light. He had this to say about the historical performance:
“I drew inspiration, both musically and visually, from elements unique to the cathedral: the sound of the bells, the artworks inside, the voices of the Maîtrise Notre-Dame choir, and the classical style.”
Through his ‘Monumental Tour’ concept, he fuses electronic music and heritage to offer unique immersive experiences. He thrilled audiences in iconic locations such as the Abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel, the top of the Eiffel Tower for Gustave Eiffel’s centenary, and most recently in front of the Basilica del Pilar in Zaragoza, where he drew a crowd of over 45,000. His art continues to make an impact around the world, with videos and social media broadcasts reaching tens of millions of views.
