Presentation

Théotime Langlois de Swarte, a young baroque violin prodigy, takes over the baton of the Royal Opera Orchestra for an exceptional concert of Bach's famous violin concertos.

Théotime Langlois de Swarte, a young baroque violin prodigy, takes over the baton of the Orchestre de l'Opéra Royal for an exceptional concert of Bach's famous violin concertos. He is also the first Baroque violinist to have been nominated for a Victoire de la Musique Classique award (2020), in recognition of his work with several Baroque ensembles, including Les Arts Florissants and Les Ombres.

This is the perfect opportunity to enjoy Bach's concertos for one, two and three violins, masterpieces of the genre and of the late Baroque which, combining virtuosity and expressive singing, pay tribute to the German composer. At the age of thirty-two, Bach was master of music at the Court of Köthen, where he made the most splendid instrumental music. With an orchestra of virtuoso soloists at his disposal, he composed his violin concertos to dazzle the Prince he served: mission accomplished with brio!
