Chœur Symphonique de Namur

Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège

Immerse yourself in a night of classical brilliance as Gergely Madaras and the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège (OPRL) present an awe-inspiring performance featuring two of Franz Liszt's orchestral masterpieces. The concert, set to take place on Friday, April 11, 2025, at 20:00 in the prestigious Namur Concert Hall, promises an unforgettable experience lasting approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes.

The evening's program opens with Liszt's Second Piano Concerto, showcasing the exceptional talents of soloist Julien Libeer. This piece, known for its dramatic intensity and technical demands, sets the stage for the highlight of the night, the Dante-Symphonie. Inspired by Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy," Liszt's symphony is a monumental work that Wagner described as both ingenious and masterful. The performance will take listeners on a journey through the realms of Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso, mirroring the epic voyage of Dante's literature.

The Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège, under the baton of Gergely Madaras, will be joined by the Chœur Symphonique de Namur, adding a powerful vocal dimension to the Dante-Symphonie. This concert is part of the "Hors série" series and is not included in the regular subscription package, making it a unique addition to the season's offerings.
