Be enchanted by the imaginings of two influential French composers: hide and seek in an evening garden, a piano concerto for the left hand only, a selection of fairy tales and a masterful evocation of the sea.
With founder and principal conductor, François-Xavier Roth, Les Siècles is known for combining period instruments and a fresh approach. For Ravel’s Piano Concerto, the group is joined by star soloist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet.
Their performance of the gorgeous Ma mère l'oye (Mother Goose) is accompanied by Grégoire Pont’s hand-drawn illustrations, many created on the spot.
