Cinema-Concert

80 years after the end of the Second World War, the French Republican Guard Orchestra is at the Opéra de Reims for a cinema-concert evoking the period 1914-1945, as experienced by our great-great-grandparents. The show recounts the slide of some young people towards radicalism.

While period films are projected on a large screen and the Orchestra plays original music by Patrice d’Ollone, a narrator and a reciter read letters written a century ago by young French, Germans, Spaniards, Italians and Belgians. A poignant show, where history is told from the perspective of men and women.

A grand finale to the Festival!

Conducted by Hervé Niquet, the French Republican Guard Orchestra will take us on an exciting journey through two centuries of music. From Tchaikovsky to Gershwin, Johann Strauss to Gustav Holst, Bizet to Offenbach, the music will be in turn brilliant, thunderous, mischievous, moving, grandiose and sparkling.

Conducted by Colonel François Boulanger, the prestigious French Republican Guard Orchestra will accompany the Young Talents of the Brahms Promotion and their teachers Philippe Jaroussky, Nemanja Radulovic, Anne Gastinel and Cédric Tiberghien.
