Celebrations are exceptional circumstances and transform everyday life. Even at its birth, opera had a liaison with celebration. But because the once exclusive festive music now belongs to everyone, we invite you to join us for a celebration. In his first musical theater work, Eric Gauthier explores why and how people celebrate. Together with singers, dancers, choir and orchestra, the audience travels through the celebrations of a lifetime. On the playlist: two centuries of vocal and dance music, including unheard-of rarities.
Music theater creation with arias, ensembles, choirs and dances by Johann Sebastian Bach, Riccardo Broschi, Antonio Caldara, Francesco Cavalli, John Dowland, Carl Heinrich Graun, Georg Friedrich Händel, Reinhard Keiser, Marin Marais, Tarquino Merula, Nicola Porpora, Henry Purcell, Jean-Philippe Rameau, Agostino Steffani, Georg Philipp Telemann, Leonardo Vinci and Antonio Vivaldi
