Description
"We will open this new edition of the Festival with the exceptional presence of the Orchester Symphonique de la Monnaie de Bruxelles, the orchestra of which Alain Altinoglu has been musical director since 2016.
We will begin with the Lohengrin Prelude, then the great French baritone Stéphane Degout will offer us one of Mahler's founding cycles: the poignant Songs of a Wandering Companion.
Romantic music par excellence, it will echo the sublime iridescence of the Prelude to Lohengrin, an opera with which Wagner opened the way to a new aesthetic.
In the second part of the program, Alain Altinoglu will conduct a piece that is dear to him: César Franck's Symphony in D minor which he has just recorded with his other favorite orchestra, the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra.
This famous Symphony in D minor, a jewel of the late 19th century repertoire, testifies to this unique way of organizing musical time, in its form as well as in its alchemy of instrumental timbres."
More information is available on the official website of the festival.
