Description

All those who have met him can testify: Pierre Boulez always went ahead. Since its creation, the Ensemble intercontemporain has also tirelessly turned its gaze towards the future, conscious of its history. This concert is a tribute to its founder, but a tribute that places man, his work and his action in a historical perspective by immersing himself in his roots, represented here by Arnold Schönberg and Anton Webern.
