Organist and harpsichordist, Sébastien Daucé is driven by the desire to bring to life a rich and still little-known repertoire: that of 17th century French music. In 2009, he founded the Correspondances ensemble, which he directs from the harpsichord or organ, and with which he travels throughout France and the world and frequently records for the radio. His exploration of a little-played, often unpublished repertoire, resulted, with the support of the Harmonia Mundi label, a pioneer in many respects in the baroque repertoire, in a discography of seventeen recordings noted by critics. Alongside his activities as a musician, Sébastien Daucé collaborates with the best specialists of the 17th century, regularly publishing articles and participating in important performance-practice projects. Passionate about the question of musical style, he edits the music that constitutes the ensemble's repertoire, going so far as to offer complete recompositions when necessary (Le Ballet Royal de la Nuit). Since 2023, he has been the artistic director of the Promenades Musicales du Pays d’Auge.

A normalist in Italian language and literature and a graduate of Paris-Dauphine University, Céline Portes specialized very early in the management of cultural organizations. She began by working in cultural diplomacy in Italy before occupying various positions within musical structures in France. Since 2015 she has been General Delegate of the early music ensemble Correspondances and from 2023 continues the development of the Festival les Promenades Musicales du Pays d’Auge. She is Vice-President of the Profedim union (producers, festivals and independent music ensembles) and as such sits on the Professional Council of the National Music Center. She is committed to the ecological transition of live performance by co-founding ARVIVA – Living Arts, Sustainable Arts, an association which brings together the sector around new practices in the performing arts professions.
