50 years of the Orchestre national de Metz Grand Est

Show & Culture

To celebrate the golden anniversary between the Orchestre National de Metz Grand Est and its audience, a sparkling program is offered. Orchestra's solo violist, composer Alain Celo, unveils all the colors of the symphonic instrument in a creation inspired by the red-orange rocks of Colorado's Grand Canyon. Russian violinist Alena Baeva will perform Mozart's Concerto No. 5 on her 1738 Guarneri del Gesu violin. In the second part, the exuberant Viennese waltzes from Richard Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier will be followed by Ravel’s famous Boléro.
