In a program dedicated to the artistic splendour of the era of Louis XIV, Sonate 1704 displays the noble poetry of the violin at the Sun King’s court.
Under the radiant authority of the monarch, who saw the arts as essential in the affirmation of his power, the violin became a privileged voice: expressive, eloquent, majestic. This concert reflects the refined elegance of the French masters and evokes the luminescence of a golden age where music’s power was both grand and intimate.
