Intimate playing from Sean Shibe, a deconstruction of Maria Callas’ vibrato and a deeply committed Boulez mid 20th-century masterpiece.

Eloise Lally shifts the Romeo and Juliet love story into New York mafia families. Jessica Cale and Samantha Price provide blissful bel canto as the star-crossed lovers.

Conférences, académie, concerts croisant compositeurs anciens et actuels, solistes de premier plan et étudiants de l'académie, le tout réuni autour d'un projet musical cohérent : le Festival Ravel est décidément un modèle de festival.
