Start your day in style with a delicious breakfast and exquisite French music played by your favourite festival artists. Bon appétit!
After the French Revolution, French brass traditions took a major step forward, developing a taste for grandiose events with massed brass choirs. The five players from Golden Gate Brass concentrate on the more witty and whimsical side of the French character: from Gounod’s Funeral March for a Marionette to the oddly titled pieces of Erik Satie.
The concert is followed by a conversation with the artists led by Genevieve Jacobs.
