Après le cycle de mélodies berlioziennes, Gardiner et son Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique ont proposé un Songe d’une nuit d’été particulièrement incarné, sous la brise fraîche de La Côte-Saint-André.

Shakespeare's Nick Bottom, who claimed “a reasonable good ear in music” would surely have approved of these performances at the Barbican Hall.
