Lili Boulanger — Faust et Hélène: Konserthuset Stockholm

About the Event

Seize a rare chance to hear Lili Boulanger's secular cantata Faust et Hélène performed live at the Konserthuset.

Boulanger's winning composition for the coveted Prix de Rome in 1913, the work encapsulates a conflict between a conservative establishment and the composer's progressive instincts that is entirely in keeping with the pre‐War musical scene in Europe. Debussy's Images is of similar vintage, and provides an excellent partner work for the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, under the baton of Alan Gilbert.
