The symphony Orchestra at the Salle Cortot

To mark the 280th anniversary of the birth of Chevalier de Saint-George, violinist Romuald Grimbert-Barré presents an exceptional concert that brings together the legacy of the 18th-century Enlightenment and contemporary creation. The music of Saint-George, an emblematic figure of enlightened thought, classical aesthetics and Guadeloupean culture, dialogues with a contemporary creation by Thierry Pécou, inspired by Caribbean rhythms and imagery.

This concert is a musical and spiritual tribute to the unique career of Saint-George, a free man and visionary. Between European classicism and island rhythms, the violin reveals itself in multiple facets, an instrument of memory, fire and rebirth.

Concert to launch the album Hommage à Saint-George, released on the Aparté label.
