En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Cornet

Le Festival de musique sacrée et baroque de Froville a inauguré sa 25e édition avec une éblouissante prestation de L'Arpeggiata, entre pages savantes et musiques populaires, éveillant des images traversant âges et traditions.

Rarely has so distinguished a group been assembled to give this work live; it would have shone as a highlight even in a normal year of visiting foreign ensembles and performers.

The scene is 1612 in Venice: a great battle has been won against the dreaded Ottoman Empire, and in celebration, evening prayers are ordered to be set to music specially composed by the great Giovanni Gabrieli, Claudio Monteverdi and others.
