DESTINIES OF QUEENS
Opening concert
Amarillis (7 musicians) and Patricia Petibon (soprano)
This program echoes the other projects imagined by Amarillis for Patricia Petibon for several years around emblematic female figures. This recital proposes to imagine in music the portraits of three heroine personalities who have marked our universal history. : Eleanor of Aquitaine, Agrippina the Younger and Queen Mary. These three sovereign women, confronted with power, are sometimes manipulative. They experience abandonment and betrayal, but are first of all human and deeply touching.

MELODIES IN MIND
Amarillis (4 musicians)
A concert like a journey in the life of Georg Friedrich Handel. Sonatas in trio, are compared with two imaginary suites in the spirit of the dance suite. Give to hear a melody without words in its most intimate expression, this is Handel's challenge to us, this man with a universal mind, passionate about painting and who knew how to translate into music the whole range of human feelings. These melodies, so suggestive, enter into us, enchant us and leave us no respite. He will be associated with composers such as Georg Philipp Telemann or Marin Marais.
