Step into the glamour and charm of turn-of-the-century Paris as we open our season with a tribute to the 150th birthday of Maurice Ravel featuring some of his famous exotic pieces like the popular Habanera and Pavane, the charming Le Tambeu de Couperin and brilliant Alborada de gracioso for solo piano.
The performance also features the Saint-Saens Piano Quartet in B Flat Major, highlighting exciting virtuosity and dreamy French lyricism. The program opens with the sparkling Rondeau by Cecile Chaminade, the first woman composer to receive the Legion d'Honneur.
This elegant concert celebrates French impressionism and romanticism enveloping audiences in the lush textures and emotional depth of French musical artistry. Dont miss an evening which captures the essence of Parisian sophistication and musical innovation.
