Book

Eager to offer the Viennese composer a stage that brings him closer, Raphaël Pichon and Silvia Costa unearth forgotten scores, jewels of lyricism and melancholia, from which emerge, both literally and figuratively, the ghosts of a masterpiece.

Lyrical Scenes on music by Franz Schubert and texts by Heine, Goethe, Etc.

Schubert has only ever completed half of his lyrical projects and only a few have been taken to the stage. Of these attempts remain scattered pieces which hide exceptional treasures. The production pays tribute to these incomplete works of art: the narrative follows the journey of a creature haunted by finitude and who uses music as a tool for understanding.

In the dark night, a forensic doctor receives a body which he quickly recognises as his own double. He thus engages in a moral and emotional dissection that confronts him with his memories, death and oblivion.

Musical direction Raphaël Pichon • Stage direction and decor Silvia Costa • With Stéphane Degout, Siobhan Stagg, Laurence Kilsby • Orchestra and Choir Pygmalion • Children's choir Maîtrise Populaire de l’Opéra-Comique
