Philip Glass, a living legend in contemporary music, has redefined musical boundaries. The Philip Glass Ensemble, founded by the artist, will take up the challenge of performing Music in Twelve Parts in its entirety in a unique and memorable evening.

Philip Glass, a pioneer of minimalism, transformed contemporary music by blurring the boundaries between popular and learned music. With Music in Twelve Parts, a distillation of his repetitive techniques of the 60s and 70s, he offers a theoretical and emotional work that is both modular and innovative. His hypnotic loops have had a lasting impact on the choreographic and cinematic scene, making him a major influence on a wide range of artists, from Radiohead to Nils Frahm. A unique evening to rediscover a work that has left its mark on the history of contemporary music.

Immerse yourself in a musical journey lasting 3h30, interspersed with several intermissions. The total duration of the event is five hours, and the concert will finish at around 11 p.m.
If you wish, a local snack will be available for purchase during the main one-hour interval.
