15ème édition Du Festival De La Diversité Culturelle
About
“When jazz meets classical: a night of musical dialogue between cultures”.
Immerse yourself in an exceptional musical evening, where the spontaneity of New Orleans jazz dances with the precision of classical masterpieces.
- Conducted by Benoît Fromanger, internationally renowned for his musical sensitivity and artistic commitment,
- Luc Héry, concertmaster of the Orchestre National de France,
- Wang Wei, flute virtuoso and former mainstay of the Chinese National Symphony Orchestra,
- L'Orchestre à Cordes de Paris (elite ensemble from the NFB),
come together to perform iconic classical works, offering a harmonious fusion of musical traditions.
All enriched by the intoxicating energy of the Dixieland Seniors - living legends of French jazz.
Founded in 1945 by passionate polytechnicians, this legendary group, led by the iconic François Mayer (99) on trombone and vocals, transports you back to the golden age of jazz with timeless verve.
A symphony of contrasts: Baroque rigor versus jubilant improvisation, Eastern heritage versus Western harmonies.
Experience this rare alchemy, where every note celebrates cultural diversity.
