«Eh bien! Dansez maintenant», entertainment based on La Fontaine's fables

Composed by Vladimir Cosma for the OSR 20 years ago, this divertimento for narrator and symphony orchestra illustrates some of Jean de La Fontaine’s most famous fables with a series of dances. We are delighted to see it back on the programme this season, conducted by Philippe Béran. The musicians of the OSR will share the stage with the young musicians of the Geneva College Orchestra, and it is the voice of Joan Mompart that will bring out all the liveliness, mischief and modernity of these timeless tales.

Commission: Orchestre de la Suisse Romande
Approximately 1h without intermission
