France Musique

Returning to the archives of this memorable recital, from which it presents numerous excerpts, this documentary is punctuated with testimonials from its principal performers, music critics and several big names in piano, including Lang Lang, Gabriela Montero, David Salmon and Manuel Vieillard, whose Geister Duo is considered one of the most promising duos of their generation.

Argentine pianist and composer Lalo Schifrin has penned many famous American film and TV scores. But it is the theme to Mission: Impossible that he is perhaps most famous for. The Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France perform the catchy and irregular piece, as well as many other of Schifrin’s works, conducted by Victor Jacob.

The theme of the 2025 edition of La Folle Journée de Nantes is the great cities of music. The Sinfonia Varsovia and pianist Paul Lay have chosen New York as the venue for this concert, a transatlantic voyage punctuated by the music of Gershwin.

Every year, Radio France shines a spotlight on contemporary creation through its Présences Festival. This is a genre that is being explored today by the Orchestre National de France.
