Don’t miss the All Saints’ Day concert in Le Perray-en-Yvelines!
Mosaïque welcomes pianist Gabriel Rigaux
On the eve of All Saints’ Day, Gabriel Rigaux – a professional pianist, organist, composer and choir director – will perform a virtuosic programme of music befitting the occasion on a unique piano (a 1918 Gaveau): ‘Totentanz’, ‘Will-o’-the-wisps’, ‘Dance of the Gnomes’, ‘Round Dance of the Elves’, ‘Dance of Death’, ‘Faust’s Waltz’, etc.
For this mystical ball, the Romantic repertoire is perfectly suited.
Franz Liszt is the leading composer of the genre, whilst Grieg is the ideal choice for younger listeners keen to experience the magic of Halloween on the piano.
Gabriel Rigaux will bring this music to life, accompanied by illustrations projected onto a screen
and candles providing soft, subdued lighting.
A little extra
Gabriel Rigaux, the choir director, is a renowned virtuoso pianist. It was after trying out the 1918 Gaveau piano on loan to the municipality of Le Perray-en-Yvelines that he fell under its spell.
