Candlelight Concert

Candlelight Concert with Moraguès Quintet is organized on Sunday 05 April at 5 pm in Opéra de Monte-Carlo, Salle Garnier.

In this candlelight concert-reading, playwright Dorian Astor uncovers the hidden face of Hector Berlioz: drawing from the many texts written by the composer, he ushers us into the creative jubilation of the artist, as well as his struggles, his grandeur, and his ferocious humour. Weaving the music with the composer’s own words, Quintette Moraguès and pianist Claire Désert unfold a journey across Berlioz masterpieces, such as the Symphonie fantastique, Nuits d’été, La Damnation de Faust and L’Enfance du Christ.
