Monteverdi - Vespro Della Madonna
At the end of his life, Monteverdi gathered all of his works to guide musicians during religious services. This composer, who shaped sacred music for nearly a century, is now celebrated by Vincent Dumestre and Le Poème Harmonique, who have created a program for him that resonates like his musical testament.
Armide was Lully and Quinault's last lyric tragedy, and is considered their greatest dramatic achievement. Vincent Dumestre conducts this spellbinding masterpiece, buoyed by Stéphanie d'Oustrac's masterful interpretation.
Let yourself be swept away in the whirlwind of amorous feelings, beautifully depicted by sumptuous music with flamboyant colors. Vincent Dumestre invites you to the border of Hell, where love and madness interweave in an enchanting baroque dance.
Les Noces Royales de Louis XIV - A Royal Wedding
The wedding of Louis XIV and Maria Theresa of Austria was the event of the century! Vincent Dumestre and Le Poème Harmonique imagine the rich musical programme that accompanied the festivities, closely linked to the treaty of the Pyrenees, a promise of peace in Europe.
Molière & Lully - Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme - Musical pieces
When the first notes of the new comédie-ballet, Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, the fruit of Lully's and Molière's genius, sounded on 14 October 1670, no one could have imagined it would reach such a posterity - four centuries later, the same lightness, vigour and ingenuity still make us laugh!
One evening, like so many others at the Château, Louis XIV sits down for dinner. While dishes and delicacies of all kinds are being served, everyone is carried away by the most succulent music, concocted by the chef Lalande. You too can enjoy the ripest fruit of chamber music!
A love that nothing can stop, that the sole human will manages to fulfill, bending the will of the Gods. For the first French opera, the story of Cadmus and Hermione could not have been better chosen; since then, the bond between the French public and tragédie lyrique has been a love story.
A celebration of the marvellous and of illusion, a prerogative of the Baroque, this re-creation of Lully's opera, dedicated to the son of the Sun, by Vincent Dumestre and Benjamin Lazar, enchants us with its assumed grandiloquence and its original phrasing restored, en bon françois!
A celebration of the marvellous and of illusion, a prerogative of the Baroque, this re-creation of Lully's opera, dedicated to the son of the Sun, by Vincent Dumestre and Benjamin Lazar, enchants us with its costumes that are a cross between the Baroque and the contemporary, its singular and striking make-up, and its original phrasing restored, en bon françois!
