With an original staging of text and music, Orlando follows the trail of one of the greatest composers of the Renaissance: Orlando di Lasso (also known as Roland de Lassus). His life and masterful oeuvre continue to move people to this day. Although he was a European star at the time, di Lasso had to endure the indignities of his social status as a servant. This documentary explores the relationship between art and power, musically accompanied by the ensemble La Tempête.

Simon-Pierre Bestion celebrates the musical and cultural heritage of Paris' Notre-Dame with the La Tempête ensemble and a host of guests like Sabine Devieilhe and Olivier Latry, among others.
