Les Recettes de l'amour by Various, ti. 26 juli 2022, Fra (2022/2022), Dirigent William Christie

There are collusions that transcend generations: this is the case of that, musical and human, which unites William Christie with Lea Desandre and Thomas Dunford. If one revealed the other two to the general public, and if many years separate them, all three share the same taste for music, made of audacity, brio, fantasy – and above all, passion. It is therefore in the intimacy of a family of heart and music that this unusual program invites us, in the image of these three unclassifiable personalities. Shattering the barriers between styles or eras, these Recipes of Love combine baroque airs, melodies and excerpts from operetta – from Marc Marc-Antoine Charpentier to Jacques Offenbach, via Reynaldo Hahn and Michel Lambert – with the common thread is the French language so dear to this cosmopolitan trio. A tasty menu… and joyful!
