18th-century French chansonnettes
Les brunettes are tender and light songs, highly fashionable in the France of the Sun King. This delicately theatrical program presents music written for the leisure of both aristocratic salons and bourgeois gatherings.
Through anonymous airs or works by Naudé, Saggione, Julie Pinel, or the royal publishers Ballard, this concert recreates a world of love games, confidences, irony, and pastoral reveries.
Here, Les Kapsber’girls offer an interpretation where naturalness, freshness of tone, and textual finesse take center stage. An intimate atmosphere, conducive to listening and emotion.
