A unique concert combining cello and piano
For the third time, Camille Thomas returns with the pianist Julien Brocal in Giverny. On the program for this musical afternoon: a friendship, that of Frédéric Chopin and cellist Auguste-Joseph Franchomme.
Before dying, the famous pianist Chopin addressed his very last letter to his friend and confided to him: “my favorite instrument is the cello”.
The concert will close with a sonata by Sergei Rachmaninoff, a great lover and interpreter of Chopin.
The Franco-Belgian cellist Camille Thomas became known at only 26 years old at the Victoires de la Musique.
