Belle Epoque! is the second recital with piano for mezzo-soprano Adèle Charvet with Florian Caroubi, who has been her regular duo partner since 2015. Together they celebrate the belle époque of the great French melodists (Massenet, Debussy, Fauré) and their protégés, including Chausson, Hahn, Koechlin, Aubert, Caplet, Messager, Enesco, Albéniz, Madeleine Dubois and Nadia Boulanger, as well as the much less known Xavier Leroux and Ernest Moret. This is a program about lines of descent and musical transmission, energized by the texts of great poets such as Verlaine, Mallarmé, Maeterlinck, Banville, Leconte de Lisle, Louÿs and Toussaint. Adèle Charvet, Mezzo-Soprano Florian Caroubi, Piano
