The French violinist Renaud Capucon, horrifed by the fire that destroyed part of the iconic cathedral last April, has raised more than 100,000 Euros in a concert tour of six other cathedrals – Chartres, Saint Jean-Baptiste de Lyon, Reims, Saint-Germain des Prés à Paris, Notre-Dame d’Amiens and Saint-André de Bordeaux.

Other artists taking part included the viola players Gérard Caussé and Adrien La Marca and cellists Edgar Moreau, Victor Julien-Lafferiere and Julia Hagen. More than 5,000 people attended the concerts.
