At the gates of modernity
Trained in Paris and professor of clarinet in Lyon and Glasgow, the Frenchman Nicolas Baldeyrou is the first prestigious guest of this new season of Happy Hour! He is at home in all repertoires on both historical and modern instruments, and his career has taken him all over the world. A sought-after chamber music partner, he shares the stage with four musicians from the OPRL and pianist Hasmik Manukyan, for a journey through trios, quintets and sextets from the 20th and 21st centuries.
