Récital d’orgue : Samuel Liégeon

Presented by Musique Sacrée Notre-Dame de Paris Throughout the centuries, the links between music and visual arts have continuously inspired creators.

This recital explores this fertile dialogue by associating one of the masterpieces of the piano repertoire, Les Tableaux d'une exposition by Modeste Moussorgski, with the art of improvisation, where the image becomes the starting point for an instant musical creation.

The organ transcription by Samuel Liégeon reveals all the orchestral richness and evocative power of Moussorgski's work.

In contrast, his Résonances picturales offer an original journey inspired by major works in the history of painting, from the Renaissance to contemporary creation.

Within the exceptional resonance of the great organ of Notre-Dame de Paris, each improvisation gives birth to a unique sound universe, extending through music the colours, forms, and movements suggested by the image.

A concert where listening becomes another way of contemplating, at the crossroads of creation, imagination, and artistic emotion.
