In Paris and throughout theÎle-de-France region, museums, monuments, châteaux and other institutions are getting in on the act, and this is an opportunity you won't want to miss! So make a note of the date of the next edition, which takes place this Saturday, May 18, 2024.
Paris is a veritable open-air museum. And the region surrounding the capital is also well worth a visit! One example is the town of Versailles in the Yvelines region, known in particular for the spectacular residence of the Sun King. In addition to the famous Château de Versailles, built during the reign of Louis XIV, this charming town also boasts theEspace Richaud. Located in the former royal hospital, in the historic chapel, this astonishing venue vibrates throughout the year to the rhythm of a vitamin-packed program of contemporary art exhibitions and events. So, what can you expect at Espace Richaud for Nuit des Musées 2024?
Wander freely in an unexpected and unheard-of way through the Espace Richaud in Versailles.
The Arte Lab choir and orchestra from the Lycée La Bruyère in Versailles, and its conductors Maïlys Pascault and David Sotiropoulos, invite you to (re)discover the site and your senses through the prism of verticality: music, dance, poetry, humanity between heaven and earth.
The works performed by the voices and instruments of the young musicians and their conductors, punctuated by choreographic improvisations, will (trans)carry you towards an imaginary world of your own: beauty, harmony, meditation, emotions and spirituality.
An evening marked by musical and dance proposals that resonate with the architecture, offering your peregrinations a setting with an immense palette of colors, styles, genres and formations: Rameau, Schubert, Fauré, Dvořák or Piazzolla, sacred or secular works, film music, electro, jazz, re/creations, improvisations...
Total Art at the service of the soul, that's our VERTIKKA(RT) n°1 project!
