This 12th-century church in Sare pairs Basque soul with French grandeur: three tiers of wooden galleries overlook the nave, while a gilded baroque altarpiece glows at the altar. It's a quiet, atmospheric spot where centuries of history still echo.

Thomas Moreau's world premiere weaves 13 movements through joy, melancholy, and solemnity, with the Pater Noster and Dio vi salvi Regina sung in the island's native tongue.
