Pour le RIAS Kammerchor

Gilles Lesur, 8th June

Programmer trois œuvres chorales de Johannes Brahms, Pascal Dusapin et Maurice Duruflé était déjà très une belle idée. Surtout, lorsque le chœur invité pour la circonstance est un des meilleurs ensembles européens, le RIAS Kammerchor. Magnifique soirée donc que ce concert donné à la Philharmonie 2 (anciennement Cité de la Musique), malheureusement devant une salle peu remplie.
