Live music & concerts
Last updated date : 20/08/2024
The Orchestra musicians and Lyon Opera Choir singers are gathered for a cycle of chamber music concerts. A perfect opportunity to discover pieces in a more intimate setting, in three places which represent the full range of Lyon’s artistic offer: the Musée Gadagne, the newly-reopened Salle Molière, and the Lyon Opera Amphi.
Forced by wartime restrictions, Stravinsky conceived this score along the lines of a traveling theater, with reduced instrumentation. He thus created a work accessible to all, with multiple influences: tango, ragtime, paso doble and even jazz. A music that demands the utmost rhythmic dexterity and perfect symbiosis between the performers.
