At the Philharmonie de Paris, Brazilian music legend Gilberto Gil revisits half a century of his career in a gentle, committed, and eclectic concert.

Even if you kill a poet, a thousand songs will survive him. College students from a suburb of Aix-en-Provence attend the creation of an opera in Arabic, written by a Syrian poet in exile. Words that will resonate well beyond their schoolyard.

For its opening concert, the 2024 Festival Présences pays tribute to Steve Reich. The event features conductor George Jackson, the Ensemble Intercontemporain, the Synergy Vocals choir and Hae-Sun Kang with Héloïse Werner.
