The young superstar countertenor Philippe Jaroussky lends his unforgettable voice to a concert of 19th and 20th century French melodies.
Celebrated for his performances of baroque works by the likes of Bach, Handel, Scarlatti, and Vivaldi in partnership with conductor-violinist Jean-Christophe Spinosi, his insatiable curiosity for other repertoires is testified to in this magical concert captured at the Verbier Festival in July 2009. Philippe Jaroussky and Jérôme Ducros presented their audience with an anthology of beautiful French fin de siècle melodies.
