Mon Amant de Saint-Jean | Le Poème Harmonique & Stéphanie d’Oustrac

Songs from the Roaring Twenties echoing baroque arias, such is the game of mirrors played by Stéphanie d'Oustrac and Vincent Dumestre in a moving dialogue with history.

The inter-war period happily rediscovers a forgotten repertoire: performers and composers immerse themselves in the popular songs of the past, as well as in the great arias of Lully or Monteverdi, feeding a nostalgia for bygone times, capable of nourishing a national novel and rebuilding common roots. The Poème Harmonique's recital retraces this genealogical quest: the gentle madness of the 1920s meets the languorous or unleashed passions of the old tragedies. On stage, a woman dreams, at a time when buried emotions and vivid memories, albeit faded by time, of her past loves, come to the surface.

Colette Renard, Barbara, or Damia, so many singers of the last century to whom Stéphanie d'Oustrac, a specialist in baroque heroines, pays tribute.
