Venise
Often associated with sadness, melancholy can be a reverie or an evocation of happy memories, especially when it becomes music. This programme offers a glimpse of lost paradises: the graceful period in the love story of Alma and Gustav Mahler; the unattainable loves of Schubert, whose genius turned melancholy into a source of creation; and Chopin, whose childhood in Poland permeates all his music.
