This evening is dedicated, among others, to Maurice Ravel (1875-1937), whose 150th birthday is being celebrated on 7 March 2025.

When he composed his motet âExsultate jubilateâ K.165, Mozart was only 17 years old. He was then at the height of his fame. He was 35 when he wrote âThe Magic Fluteâ and died shortly afterwards. Dutch conductor Ton Koopman presents a programme that traces the stages of the composer's life. Russian soprano Julia Lezhneva performs the solo parts.
For Peter and the Wolf, premiered in 1936, Prokofiev chose the form of a symphonic tale, featuring a narrator alongside the orchestra. A unique work in which each instrument embodies a character. Renaud Capuçon conducts the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne, while Jean Reno takes on the role of narrator.
