Notre Dame Cathedral
Olivier Latry is Notre Dame Cathedral's longest-serving organist. Just days before the church's gala reopening, after the destructive fire in 2019, he talks about the refurbished instrument — it holds 8,000 pipes — and its role in the church.

Sir Mark Elder stands against a dark gray background. He wears a navy,  pinstripe suit, and he looks at the camera out of the corners of his eyes. There is an air of mystery about him. Blaise Déjardin poses with his arm around the neck of his cello wearing a concert black. He faces the camera head on and smiles.
