Based in Lyons, the "Ensemble" presents its production in a thematic musical season. The programs are then given both in the Rhone-Alpes region and somewhere else in France or in foreign countries. Since it has been created, the "’Ensemble" has given some 500 concerts and has been regularly invited by festivals such as the Festival de La Chaise-Dieu, the Ambronay Festival, the Ile de France Festival, the Palau de la Música in Barcelona, Auditorio Nacional in Madrid, the Auditorium in Dijon and the Montserrat Abbey...

Six commercial recordings, widely acclaimed by the specialised press, attest of the quality and originality of its productions. The last one Il Martirio di Sant’Orsola by Alessandro Scarlatti is part of an Italian cycle based on the manuscripts preserved in Lyons and its region. This underlines the scientific research undertaken for over a decade by Franck-Emmanuel Comte.
The new project Carolan’s Dream, more personal and original, inaugurates a new recording work around the further theme: artistic meetings between near musical worlds.

Besides the "Concert de l’Hostel Dieu" develops on the one hand a training programme for young singers trough the "Atelier Vocal" that completes the oratorio-choir. Combining training and production, the "Atelier Vocal" aims at the promotion of young professional singers through three programmes per year. On the other hand, each academic year, specific educational activities are proposed to partner-secondary-schools.
Le Concert de l’Hostel Dieu also spend time to sensitise people to baroque music thanks to various actions and last but not least, in partnership with the Edition company “Les Abesses” it published unreleased partitions.

The "Concert de l'Hostel Dieu" is supported by the Ministry of Culture and Communication (DRAC Rhône-Alpes), the town of Lyons, the Rhône-Alpes regional council.
It’s a member of the Federation for the specialized instrumental and vocal Ensemble (FEVIS).

Over the recent years, he has conducted Bach's Christmas Oratorio at the Auditorio Nacional in Madrid, les Indes Galantes in Barcelone, Arvo Pärt's Miserere at the Auditorium in Dijon, a Scarlatti concert in the Ambronay Festival, Rossi's Orfeo at the Lyons National Opera, a programme dedicated to Italian Laudes and Handel's Dixit Dominus Il Martirio di Sant’Orsola by Scarlatti at the "Festival de la Chaise Dieu"…
His last six records received good critics in famous French culture and music magazines such as Diapason, Le Monde de la Musique, Télérama, Opéra International, Le Monde, La Lettre du musicien, Répertoire…
