Virtuosity, cantabile, the concerto’s popular and dancing rhythms, the symphonies’ rich orchestral colors, the science of narrative description in the quintets.
By revolutionizing the writing for strings, Boccherini paves the way for composers like Haydn and Beethoven, while cultivating a Spanish style discovered in Madrid and then cultivated, far away from the great European courts.
Philippe Hersant’s inspiration from Boccherini and his own stays in Spain make us discover his nights in Madrid.

The intimate setting of the string quintet allows the solo voice to bring the famous text attributed to Jacopone da Todi to its climax.
