Our programme of events will continue on 12 March with a talk by
Emilie Capulet entitled:
Maurice Ravel et son univers : la musique et ses sortilèges
“Au fou!” s’écria une dame en entendant le Boléro de Maurice Ravel (1875-1937),
devenu l’une des oeuvres pour orchestre les plus célèbres dans l’histoire de la
musique, lors de la première à Paris en 1928. Le compositeur aurait répondu
« celle-là, elle a compris » ! Les partitions de Ravel sont à la fois envoutantes et
émouvantes mais aussi pétillantes et pleines d’humour. Grand collectionneur de
jouets mécaniques et de bibelots orientaux, de boîtes à musique et autres
chinoiseries, Maurice Ravel est fasciné par la magie de l’enfance et ses sortilèges.
