Last summer they performed Daphnis and Chloe. This year, Rafael Payare and the OSM continue their exploration of the Ballets Russes repertoire with a work by Stravinsky that will transport the audience to a fairytale world: the complete version of The Firebird. The dazzling virtuosity of this multicoloured masterpiece is matched by Glière’s Harp Concerto, masterfully performed by Xavier de Maistre in his Lanaudière debut.
