PROGRAMME
Beethoven: Violin Concerto in D major
Tchaikovsky: Act 2 of The Nutcracker

VENUE NOTE
On Christmas Eve, little Clara receives a nutcracker. That’s when…

This fairy tale, brought to the stage by Tchaikovsky, has inspired and continues to inspire generations. Its dancing notes open onto a colorful and sparkling universe.

Before these magical moments, a large-scale work bears witness to a happy period in Beethoven’s life: a concerto rich in themes deployed by the orchestra, in osmosis with a violin of great poetry.
