Where the heart beats, or how to unite three visions of musical emotion, from classicism to modernism and post-romanticism.
Beethoven?s Symphony No. 4, a rare gem, opens with an astonishing youthful vitality and intimate lyricism. Then soprano Golda Schultz illuminates André Previn?s sensual Honey and Rue, a cycle of melodies fusing classical and jazz on poems by Toni Morrison. Carried by the orchestra, her solar timbre captivates and illuminates this sensitive kaleidoscope of feminine emotions, from intimate murmurs to passionate flights. In the apotheosis, the suite from Strauss's Chevalier à la rose unfurls its intoxicating waltzes and fiery duets. Under Roderick Cox?s passionate direction, this opera in a nutshell becomes a symphonic poem in which the human soul pulsates, each note making our hearts dance. Between symphonic power, vocal confidence and orchestral voluptuousness, this program weaves a golden thread between the centuries? where music always beats.
