Stravinsky & Poulenc
Opera de NiceMay 2024La direction musicale de Lucie Leguay distille une battue ample, sereine et puissante en même temps. Elle offre à sa phalange cadrage et respiration, ce qui lui permet d’éviter les francs décalages entre la matière dense de la fosse et celle, plus évaporée, du plateau de Poulenc
On the podium, Lucie Leguay , with science and art, gave each Caesar what he deserved. From Stravinsky, a slow performance, ethereal at the beginning, well rhythmed from the second scene onwards. This contrasted with his treatment of Francis Poulenc's score that was both wise and also somewhat crazy. She accompanied the chorus prepared by Giulio Magnanini with softness and skill, and alternated moments of great lyricism with others of greater dynamism, all of them with great effect.
Au pupitre de l’Orchestre Philharmonique de Nice Lucie Leguay, révélation des Victoires de la Musique Classique 2023, dirige avec un professionnalisme et une précision qui forcent l’admiration deux partitions dont les difficultés stylistiques sont évidentes.
