Type of Audience : Suitable for all ages

The accordion and lyric voice offer you a moment of tranquility as you listen to melodies that inspired Balzac’s heroines. In the artistic circles he frequented, Honoré de Balzac encountered composers—both men and women—whose works this concert brings together in a loving dialogue around the novelist’s stories. As you recline in a deck chair, immerse yourself in this world and experience the full range of emotions that music evokes in Balzac’s work.

Featuring Delphine Doriola (lyrical soprano), Florent Sepchat / Floriane Héritier (accordion).

All in French.

In case of rain or extreme heat (>30°C), the session will still take place at 5:30 p.m. and will be held in the castle’s barn instead of the park, except during a red heat wave alert, in which case the session will be moved to 11:00 a.m. Participants will be notified of this schedule change by email at least 24 hours before the workshop.
