Recital by Tamara Matthews

Soprano, Tamara Matthews, a popular festival artist presented a solo recital, accompanied by the pianist David Gross. They performed a series of songs by Britten, Strauss, Fauré and Poulenc on the theme "Tribute to Belle-Ile".


L'Immeuble de Morgane

A musical show for all the family, from 4 years upwards.

Morgane's delightful and funny songs are about the adventures of the inhabitants of her apartment building. The neighbour across the way and his terrible small "chiwawa", the Senegalese meals on the third floor at her friend Babacar, the neighbour on the sixth floor who sings in his bath, the lullaby of the young mother on the 4th floor, the little witch's stange birthday party on the top floor, and many other adventures are depicted in a humorous and gentle way.

Accompanied by her close friend, the pianist Olga Vassileva, she comes on the stage to tell her stories, to sing them and even to perform them on her clarinet.

An hour-long show, created and written by Morgane Robinson, who uses French as her playground, playing with the French language and dragging the audience along with rhythm and emotion.


Concert Ad Libitum et Concerts Cocktail

These cocktail concerts are a great Lyrique-en-mer tradition and attract many regulars. Our artists perform extracts from the summer's repertoire, as well as a few arias of their own. At the end of the concert, audience members are offered a glass of bubbly and the opportunity to chat with Festival artists.
