Marin Marais and Monsieur de Sainte-Colombe

Marin Marais and Monsieur de Sainte-Colombe,
From 23 May to 1 June 2025 at the Eglise Saint-Nicolas in Moirans-en-Montagne.

The viol pieces by Marin Marais, known to the public since Pascal Quignard's Tous les Matins du Monde, are among the most beautiful pages of Baroque music. Marais makes the viol speak, so much so that it has been said that with him, the instrument has almost reached the perfection of the human voice. From Folies d'Espagne to Tombeau pour Monsieur de Sainte-Colombe, this programme revisits the life of Marais and his master, the unforgettable Monsieur de Sainte Colombe.
