Description

This “Church Trail”, conceived by our co-artistic director Janine Jansen, invites audiences to a traveling musical experience through three very different concerts. Two routes are offered, each providing a unique perspective on the world of Dmitri Shostakovich.

 

With Route B, the journey begins at St. Théodule Church with the flutist Lucie Horsch, who offers an immersion into Baroque Europe, from the Dutch Golden Age to Italian influences. Around Jacob van Eyck, Dario Castello, Georg Philipp Telemann, and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, she highlights the richness and expressivity of Baroque music.

 

The journey continues with Shostakovich’s Viola Sonata, Op. 147, performed by Amihai Grosz and Denis Kozhukhin at the Protestant Church. The composer’s final work, it stands as a deeply moving musical testament, filled with quotations from works that marked his life.

 

The route concludes with one of the absolute pinnacles of chamber music: the Quintet for two cellos by Franz Schubert. A luminous work filled with contrasting emotions, it offers an intense conclusion, suspended between depth and serenity.

 

As the closing event of the 62nd Sion Festival, this Church Trail sketches a musical journey between introspection, virtuosity, and light, through the emblematic venues of the city of Sion.
