Join us for a magical journey with "Les aventures d’Octave et Mélo" at the Namur Concert Hall on Saturday, June 29th, 2024, at 4:00 PM. This enchanting 45-minute spectacle is designed for children aged 3 to 5 years and promises a world of adventures as our beloved heroes from the France Musique podcast navigate through thrilling escapades along a river. From picnicking and wild camping to swimming and skimming stones, Octave and Mélo show us the beauty of the great outdoors. Yet, as the river's currents grow wild, their raft teeters on the brink of capsizing. Fear not, for Mélo's flute and Octave's violin bring solace and joy, reminding us that music can conquer trials and brighten life's moments.

This performance is part of the Festival Musical de Namur and is a coproduction between the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège (OPRL), Festivals de Wallonie, Radio France, and Traffix Music. The program features arrangements of works by Beethoven, Debussy, and Schubert by Gwenaël Mario Grisi. The talented team bringing this story to life includes Adèle Molle as the author and narrator, Zoé Suliko as the musician and sound effects artist, with Mathilde Bardou directing. Renaud Carton takes charge of sound engineering, Claire Farah handles the scenography, and the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège performs under the baton of Gaétan Kuchta.
