Opera de Marseille is not that great temple of opera with a population fervent passion beautiful voice, attracted by a scholarly conference operas first presents to the public in the foyer. It is also the top place with a superb symphonic season trying to think outside the box programs hackneyed orchestral music to the ears to offer music lovers little known, unknown, unknown, since there are also creations from commands.

This month, Americans, Barber, Bernstein, Gershwin was a portico to the symphony commissioned pianist and composer Nicolas Mazmanian , therefore, given its world premiere under the able ferrule inflamed Condette Guy, who also directed the virtuoso violinist Nemanja Radulovic . Each month, the sumptuous grand foyer, two hours tea welcome soloists CNIPAL . But Saturday afternoon, musicians from the Orchestra of the Opera produced it in training chamber, leaving talk their taste and talent for a more intimate music that draws a large audience at an attractive price of 5 €. The morning of the concerts is a valuable white card that is offered to students from the Conservatory Marseille who volunteer under the masterful and friendly Jean-Claude Latil (oboist of the orchestra and professor at the Conservatoire) small concerts that allow them to rub the public in this exciting and prestigious location.

should also talk about moving the Orchestra area or in places that do not frequent the music, hospitals or prisons, and all educational activities for kids, future audience with Operation Opera is class, with visits Opera and its workshops, awareness and introduction to careers in opera.

The Opera, therefore, this magnificent palace, listed Art Deco jewel, far from being cloistered behind its gates, its artistic ironwork, retreat into rigid height colonnades and marble glazed, is a real beating heart in the city, a place of perpetuation of the directory and creation, which also live about three hundred and twenty permanent, excluding intermittent.

Brahms Sextet

It is with regret at not being able to account for so many activities we resolved to speak only of this unique chamber concert, this performance by musicians from String Orchestra of the Brahms sextets so little frequented by discography that focuses symphonies and sonatas.

Music has its place that will call. The beige stucco and greige the grand foyer, reverberating with pieces of glossy brown, lightning frozen in marble, duplicated by the big mirror background, the geometric parquet frieze and butter amber, seem to give their colors and sepia brown wooden platform, and tables, the hulls of pairs of violins, violas and cellos are like a warm honey emanation, caramel, cinnamon, short ships waiting to sail on the music, fly on its wings.

The harmony of colors, clean lines, anticipates that sounds, notes, if dominated proportions, colors, if licked, when polite but Brahms crossings rages Thunderstorms and intimate: the image the quality of this interpretation, all intelligence and sensitivity to detail, an architecture with the conventional external geometry denied pulses, veins feverish romantic colors, shorelines and drift variations, nuances and Blender, d ornaments internal eye that, in this place, refers to spirals, swirls, twists and turns of the frills of the finest wrought iron railings black, accented with copper, stairs and balconies, which roll and unroll a varied theme before returning to the original measure.

The ear sees and eye viewing this osmosis shapes and sounds, and it follows that look crisp and accomplice instrumentalists who, as far as their fingers, music is circulated among them. Visible happiness, they play for themselves and us into this happiness. Everyone will have virtually all his time soloist and rely, without confusion, in a nice unit, a sensitive dynamic instruments and bodies, sometimes leaping like that of the viola. We love these tempi without weakness, melted string bass to treble, these veins from a natural color, this path voluptuous melody of Brahms planted stones mischievous pizzicato. Questions, answers, dialogues, false outputs well formed, and cadences perorations brilliant, everything sounds fair and consistent when we feared the excessive reverberation of polished marble, but treacherous to the sound.

The musicians were chosen to give in reverse chronological order the two string sextets by Brahms, the opus 18 in B flat major and opus 36 in G major respectively of 1859/1860 and 1864/1865. One example of this cohesion and good measure: the 2 e movement of the first, grand-flavored theme Slavic is very sensitive: too pressed, it becomes emphatic, too fast, he loses his greatness, too slow, he is pompous. Here, the Andante moderato I think finding the right tempo such a march from proud and fatal (andante ), but without running inexorably toward its decomposition into five virtuoso variations and whirling that take you by the throat with emotion.

link here given to extracts of this beautiful interpretation betrays greatness and weakness of live unfortunately some little the color of the place and sound.
