On September 19, 2026, the MusicAeterna orchestra and choir, under the direction of Teodor Currentzis, will present the program "Rameau: The Sound of Light – 2" at the Grand Hall of the St. Petersburg Philharmonic. This concert continues a legendary project dedicated to the operatic legacy of Jean-Philippe Rameau and promises to be one of the most significant events of the classical music season in the Northern Capital.
The evening’s program is structured as a *pasticcio*: vocal and orchestral numbers from several of Rameau’s operas — *Castor et Pollux*, *Platée*, *Les Indes galantes*, *Zaïs*, and *Les Fêtes d'Hébé* — are woven into a dramatically cohesive whole. Audiences can look forward to arias, duets, choral scenes, and dance sequences that reveal the full diversity of the great French Baroque composer's theatrical music.
Teodor Currentzis and MusicAeterna are renowned for their uncompromising approach to early music performance, combining historically informed practice with vivid, distinctive interpretation. The concert program incorporates elements of staged action, transforming the evening into a rich audiovisual experience.
Young soloists — artists from the Anton Rubinstein Academy, an educational initiative led by Maestro Currentzis — will perform alongside the orchestra and choir.
