Place Bourget

You’re invited on a vibrant musical voyage that unites the deep romanticism of Brahms, the enchanting energy of the Balkan tradition and the festive spirit of klezmer. On the Place Bourget stage, Oktopus has created a colourful programme mixing virtuosity, elevated rhythms and pure emotion. A concert where classical music converses with popular sounds to create an evening at once energetic, inviting, and irresistibly alive.
