Description
Les BaroQuiales invites you to discover the bewitching and mysterious music of Renaissance master Roland de Lassus, on a journey into the heart of the night, dreams and oracles, around the Prophéties des Sibylles and Misa Pro Defunctis.
The ensemble La Chambre, under the direction of Jean-Sébastien Beauvais, will open the festival with an immersive creation revolving around the night and the myth of the Sibyls. In the delicate, suspended setting of the Monastère de Saorge, four male voices and a viola da gamba will dialogue and respond to each other in a unique immersive and marvelous experience, between sacred and secular music, past and present.
Inspired by the spellbinding music of Roland de Lassus and his contemporaries, this concert will evoke the torpor of the night, its fears and pleasures, and the prophetic, enchanting words of dreams and oracles that guided men and Greek heroes - including Alexander - in their quest for greatness.
