Ravel: Piano Concertos conducted by Louis Langrée with the Orchestre des Champs Elysées and David Kadouch (Piano)

The Orchestre des Champs-Elysées, under the direction of Louis Langrée and alongside David Kadouch, gives us to hear all the richness and variety of Maurice Ravel’s inspiration. Louis Langrée, who has been conducting the orchestra in the French repertoire of this period since 2013, will reveal all the wonders of Ravel’s orchestration thanks to the infinite palette of colors of the period instruments.

World premiere: The Orchestre des Champs-Elysées joins forces with the Ravel Edition for this production to offer the two concertos and the Boléro in a new revised edition in which Louis Langrée and Bertrand Chamayou have actively collaborated.

Creations and co-productions parade at the Athens Opera House and its brand new theater (inaugurated in 2017), designed by the master of Italian architecture Renzo Piano. For the eight years of its creation, the company is adding Wozzeck to its repertoire. Olivier Py’s staging is set in a décor by Pierre-André Weitz where rooms and stairs intertwine on a revolving device, in a cycle of continuous curses. Vassilis Christopoulos brings cohesion and balance to this atonal score (which challenges the “grammar” of traditional tonal music), while the national star Tassis Christoyannis triumphs in the title role alongside Nadine Lehner in the sumptuous grave.
