Mozart à Paris 2027

To close the season, Laurence Equilbey directs Insula camerata: the orchestral academy that Insula orchestra founded in 2025 to transmit to a new generation of young musicians – 32 instrumentalists of 12 nationalities, 18 to 30 years old – historically informed practice on period instruments.

On the way to Paris, the ensemble follows in the footsteps of Mozart. First stop in Mannheim, where the composer writes his Flute Concerto No. 1: virtuoso and refined page, entrusted to Anna Besson, whose diaphanous timbre and sovereign line unfold all the grace.

Then comes the arrival in the capital. Mozart composed the Parisian Overture n°2 and the Symphony n°31 "Paris", designed to seduce by its scale and brilliance. The interventions of the Ballet Preljocaj Junior accompany this itinerary, prolonging in movement the energy of the orchestra.

An evening that celebrates both Mozart’s genius and the future of historical interpretation – carried by a generation of musicians at the beginning of a great adventure.
