Chœur Sanofi (Choir)

Founded: 1997 - Paris , France

Chœur Sanofi is an amateur choir based in Paris. Some companies did not wait for the Blanquer law to discover the benefits of choir practice. In 1997, Sanofi: global healthcare and pharmaceutical company, founded its own choir, now directed by François Bataille and made up of around a hundred employees spread over five Parisian sites. Since then, not a year has passed without a public concert offering the opportunity to exhibit the work carried out. Their annual concert is usually performed in the last week June at the Basilique Sainte Clotilde (Paris 7). Their performances opposed a fervent denial to those who doubted the quality of an amateur ensemble, here confronted with scores whose requirement does not suffer mediocrity. The concerts also benefit from the presence of guest soloists up to the challenge.
