A First experience, thanks to Les Arts Florissants
For Xinyi Yuzhang, Hui and Gengxu, who were amongst the pupils of the Nanjing Foreign Language School invited that evening to the NCPA of Nanjung to come and discover Les Arts Florissants, it was the first time that they had attended a performance which proposed both music and theatre. They were able to appreciate the art of the comédie-ballet, and burst out laughing during the comic scenes and were able to exchange about the show with the actors and musicians who were waiting for them backstage. “An unforgettable experience!”
“It was the first time that we had seen a play, it was really an unforgettable experience. We admired the western music, it was terrific”.” Xinyi, Hui and Haosong
The programme Baroque LIVE
Mounted thanks to the support of the Danny Kaye and Sylvia Fine Kaye Foundation, Baroque LIVE is a programme of invitations enabling adolescents from 12 to 20 years old who would not necessarily have the opportunity to attend a concert of baroque music in the very best of conditions, to meet the artists and to prolong their experience on the social medias.
