    * In Search of Lost Time | ** Pleasures and Days

     Young audience workshops Comment ça marche ?

    A lover of literature, Shani Diluka sets her inner metronome to that of In Search of Lost Time, a monument with pages steeped in music. In the company of Natalie Dessay, who will read Proust and sing Baudelaire, Verlaine and Mallarmé, the pianist will stroll through Fauré, Massenet and Debussy, among others. It is impossible to forget Wagner, the writer's idol whose Isolde will expire under Liszt's fingers. A transcription by Wilhelm Kempff will allow us to invite the Chevalier von Gluck, celebrated in a few rhymes of the Portraits of Musicians (1894). And what about Vinteuil? Imagined with Pierre Fouchenneret in the guise of Reynaldo Hahn, Eugène Ysaÿe and... Cécile Chaminade, whom the Austrian Kreisler accompanies in Spain.
