Le Concert Spirituel ensemble, choir - Les Chantres du Centre de Musique de Versailles choir - Hervé Niquet conductor - Olivier Schneebeli choir leader - Karine Deshayes Andromaque (soprano) - Maria Riccarda Wesseling Hermione (mezzo) - Sébastien Guèze Pyrrhus (tenor) - Tassis Christoyannis Oreste (baritone)
André-Ernest-Modeste Grétry Andromaque
Eighty years to the day after its inauguration, the prestigious Henry Le Bœuf Hall hosts a revival of Andromaque, the Belgian composer Grétry's one and only tragédie lyrique. A work that heralded the grand opera of the 19th century, Andromaque will allow us to hear once more grandiose sonorities that might have been thought lost for over. A task of historical recreation entrusted to Hervé Niquet and his Concert Spirituel.
