Performer: Thibaut Lenaerts

Christophe Rousset and Les Talens Lyriques perform Alceste, the most recent effort in their almost complete set of Lully's operas. A strong cast and a remarkable chorus complete a successful performance.

The choir of Les Arts Florissants is composed of some of today’s most dynamic singers, who can sing, act, and even appear in two places at the same time. Well, in a matter of speaking.

Dirigé par Julien Chauvin sans violon pour l'occasion, l'oratorio de Haydn a bénéficié des qualités habituelles du Concert de la Loge mais sans le souffle, l'exaltation, l'originalité qu'on aurait pu attendre.
