In a few words

The musicians of the Orchestra, as well as the artists of the Lyon Opera Choir, come together for a series of chamber music concerts. A perfect opportunity to discover works in a more intimate setting, in three venues that embody Lyon's rich and diverse cultural landscape: the Musée Gadagne, the Salle Molière, and the Lyon Opera Amphi.

Introductory

Bohuslav Martinů, Franz Liszt, and Antonín Dvořák are gathered in this chamber music concert. These three Eastern European composers – from Hungary and present-day Czech Republic –draw on national traditions while embracing a cosmopolitan style. Discover their works for voice and instruments, built around biblical themes and the aesthetics of the serenade.
