MIDI DU FESTIVAL — THE MAKING OF LA CALISTO

The artistic team of La Calisto offers a behind-the-scenes look at this project and its development – from the adaptation of the music to the staging of the final production. Sébastien Daucé, musical director of the ensemble Correspondances, shares details of his work on the score: his process was akin to that of Francesco Cavalli and his contemporaries in the seventeenth century, who adapted works according to the specific context and constraints of a performance. Join the creative leads and several of the performers for this deep dive into the making of La Calisto, one of the productions being presented at the Théâtre de l’Archevêché this summer.

WITH THE PARTICIPATION OF: Sébastien Daucé (conductor), Angélique Mauillon (harp – Ensemble Correspondances), Alex Rosen (Giove) et Héloïse Sérazin (assistant stage director).
