The great master's unfinished masterpiece, boldly interpreted by the Ensemble Matheus and conducted by Jean-Christophe Spinosi in the Trinity Chapel in Lyon.
Taken from a 2015 live performance, Jordi Savall depicts one of the biggest crimes in human history from the emotional point of view that only music allows. This 444-year journey, from 1444 to 1888, journeys from Mali, Brazil and Columbia to Mexico and the United States. For the first time, major artists from the heart of Africa, including Ballaké Sissoko, join the Alia Vox team.
Without delving into all the interpretations of the tale, we can detect an initiatory tale aimed at resolving the duality of being: Beauty embodies the soul of the human being and the Beast, his vital force and instincts. With Jean Cocteau, whose film was released in 1946, the focus is on the representation of the artist's inner demons through the dual nature of the Beast. Lost unity or torn human nature, whatever the case, on the symphonic pages of Tchaikovsky, in our proposal the Beast, freed from his inner demons, will marry Beauty under a burning sun.
