Joseph Michel, composer from Dijon at the Cité de la Voix
As an end-of-residency concert at the Cité de la Voix with the musicians of the Ensemble Masques, the soprano Hasnaa Bennani will perform on 1 April at 8 pm, two Leçons des ténèbres by J.Michel (1679-1736), a Dijon composer who is now forgotten but highly respected in his time.
The programme will be completed by two Rosary Sonatas by the composer H.F. Biber (1604-1704).
