During Franz Schubert's lifetime, some of his friends in cultivated Viennese society organized evenings devoted to his work. Strictly speaking, these were not concerts, but informal gatherings in private apartments, where music alternated with poetry and theater. They immediately took the name Schubertiades.

It's this very special atmosphere that we invite you to rediscover during a convivial evening that will alternate between vocal pieces, sung as soloists or in polyphonic groups, and pieces for piano four hands, such as the masterly Fantaisie in F minor.

The concert will last almost three hours. It will be divided into three parts, separated by two 30-minute breaks during which drinks included in the ticket price will be offered.
