To celebrate the Orfeo Orchestra's quarter century of existence, its French partner, the Centre de musique baroque de Versailles, has compiled a unique gala programme from operas written for the French court during the reigns of Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI. The concert will feature excerpts from works by famous composers as well as unfamiliar items from composers close to French royal musical life. The brilliant arias, festive choruses, ornamented orchestral music all attest that the... glittering pomp of the Palace of Versailles elevated the French court to one of the most important centres of music in 17th and 18th century Europe.
A joint production of the Orfeo Music Foundation and the Centre de musique baroque de Versailles.
