The King's or the Queen's choice

One kingdom, two characters, two instruments… and one musician to bring them to life!

On one side, the viola da gamba, the King’s elegant favorite. On the other, the cello, hailing from Italy and ready to conquer the stages of Europe. Through two short performances that interact like the pages of a single book, come follow the destinies of these musical cousins.

Through fables, stories, and discoveries, this diptych takes you back in time on a true musical journey. As the notes unfold, the two instruments discover each other, compare themselves, and respond to one another.

Two independent yet complementary performances that invite you to explore a musical heritage that is alive, evocative, and full of surprises.

The King’s Choice, followed by The Queen’s Choice—a musical and poetic diptych!
