Great Season Series: concert by the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra

Great Season Series: concert by the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra on Sunday 28 April, at 6 pm, Auditorium Rainier III.

The Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra (OPMC) will be conducted by Vladimir FEDOSEIEV and accompanied by pianist Mikhail PLETNEV, for a concert on the theme “Orthodox Easter”:

Orthodox Christian countries have many customs around Easter, which are especially popular with children, who often gift their friends eggs painted in colours, usually red. At Easter, Orthodox Christians greet each other with the words Христос воскресе! (Christ is risen!), to which the traditional reply is Воистину воскресе! (Truly he is risen!).

As a prelude to the concert,  André Peyregne will be presenting the works at 5 pm.
