Start 2024 by embracing the beauty and immortality of classical music. La Seine Musicale welcomes Mozart's Requiem, a spectacular performance conceived by the renowned Yoann Bourgeois, bringing together orchestra, choir and dancers in a staging orchestrated by Laurence Equilbey and the Insula orchestra, from January 12 to 14, 2024 at La Seine Musicale, Paris.
Mozart's Requiem is the composer's last masterpiece, left unfinished and completed by Yoann Bourgeois in a reflection on incompleteness and suspension. The Insula orchestra and choir are complemented by a magnificent quartet of soloists: Hélène Carpentier(soprano), Eva Zaïcik (alto), Eric Ferring (tenor) and Christian Immler (bass).
Laurence Equilbey 's bold gamble is to reveal, in this unfinished score, only the parts written by Mozart himself. A choice that invites a new listening experience, a rediscovery of this masterwork. Yoann Bourgeois ' work is based on the quasi-scientific conception of spaces and devices that amplify elementary physical phenomena, staging a humanity "traversed" by these forces in action. This process is particularly relevant to Mozart's Requiem, with its grave, intense atmosphere and existential void created by the composer's unexpected death.
A show that mixes practices and modes of interpretation for a poetic performance, at the frontier of orchestra, stage, dance and song, for a Mozart Requiem that is unprecedented in its centuries of musical history, in its setting of contemporary choreography, on January 12, 13 and 14 at La Seine Musicale.
