Join us for an engaging discussion of scholarly insights from two accomplished PhD students as they present their research and perspectives.

Here is one of the topics they will be presenting: “Ombre et lumière
Rencontre intime entre les complices du Quatuor Classica et le pianiste Jean Saulnier dans un dialogue à la fois fougueux et raffiné. À Paris, au tournant du XXe siècle, on assiste à l’éclosion d’une musique de chambre vraiment nationale. Voyage au tréfonds de l’âme des trois compositeurs Franck, Dubois et Fauré, où coexiste une puissance sonore évoquant celle de l’orgue, ainsi que le miroitement de perles cristallines dans une sensibilité toute française.”
