About
How can we hear a score which has been played and replayed as often as The Four Seasons with a fresh ear? This is the challenge that Julien Chauvin at the helm of his Concert de la Loge has set himself. Choreographer Mourad Merzouki, whose works are always located at the interface of several disciplines, provides choreographic interludes within certain movements of the different pieces by Vivaldi.
