A century since the birth of Henri Dutilleux

In association with the French Embassy in Athens and the French Institute of Greece

Fri. 18 March 2016 20:30

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

The fine French cellist Emmanuelle Bertrand appears with the Athens State Orchestra once again, performing the Concerto by Henri Dutilleux, a French composer who left an indelible mark on the music of the last century. Of course, Tchaikovsky marked the Romantic music of his century just as powerfully through charming, passionate works like his Fifth Symphony which have remained impervious to the passage of time.
