Performer: Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse

Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse lets the air out of a promising program and a Czech classic.

With barely time for coffee and baklava after the Orchestre Pasdeloup's Arabian matinee, I stepped boldly back into the harem for a rendezvous with the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse. 

Mussorgsky’s rich, complex music and Boris Godunov’s tragic story is told with very original vision in Tugan Sokhiev’s concert version. The Salle Pleyel made no mistake about it: this Boris will stay in our memories for a while.

St David’s Hall’s International Concert Series continued tonight, transporting the audience on a journey around Europe. This was the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse’s debut performance in Cardiff, and their first tour of the UK.

Avec son orchestre sur scène, son plateau ensanglanté et son excellente distribution, l'Elektra haute en couleurs de Michel Fau vient clôturer la saison amputée du Théâtre du Capitole.
