The Paris Spring
“The Paris Spring”
Instrumental Music Concert
The young artists of the Astana Opera orchestra invite the audience to take a walk along the streets of spring Paris in the company of the renowned French composers, the leaders of the musical impressionism, Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy, their extravagant colleague Erik Satie, the bold experimenter Darius Milhaud and even-tempered Camille Saint-Saëns. Philippe Gaubert and Jacques Ibert will also join them.
A piano will be the main instrument in the concert, however, a trumpet, a flute, a clarinet and … one more piano will form brilliant ensembles with it. Then the piano and trumpet will join a string quartet and a xylophone will play a solo.
The titles of the works are eloquent about their different character: La Belle excentrique, Waltz, Nocturne, Habanera, Arabesque, Moonlight, Cancan, Histories etc...
