Atys 'Tragédie en musique' in a prologue and five acts by Jean-Baptiste Lully (1632 - 1687) Libretto by Philippe Quinault afters Ovid's 'Fasti' First performance in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 10 January 1676 Les Arts Florissants, William Christie (Conductor) Jean-Marie Villégier (Stage direction), Christophe Galland (Associate Stage Director) Bernard Richter (Atys), Stéphanie d'Oustrac (Cybèle), Emmanuelle de Negri (Sangaride), Nicolas Rivenq (Célénus), Marc Mauillon (Idas), Sophie Daneman (Doris), Jaël Azzaretti (Mélisse), Paul Agnew (Le Sommeil), Cyril Auvity (Morphée), Bernard Deletré (Le temps ; le fleuve Sangar) Danseurs, Compagnie Fêtes galantes, Gil Isoart, dancer of the Opéra National de Paris Atys makes his comeback: conducted by William Christie and produced by Jean-Marie Villégier, Lully's opera was a sentation back in 1987, when it epitomized the rediscovery of baroque masterworks. The production's exquisite refinement made a lasting impression; it is being revived today at the Opera Comique. From the day it was first performed at Louis XIV's court, as was customary, Atys has been called 'The King's opera'. It was known that the king, who had been closely involved in the preparation of the opera, enjoyed humming some of its airs. It was consequently a triumph when it opened to the public at the Théâtre du Palais Royal in April. Each revival was equally successful, as were the parodies - a clear sign of popularity. With its elegant form and expressive music, the inventiveness of the dances and the unprecedented dramatic intensity, Atys was also the first opera whose libretto focused on love, and the first Tragédie Lyrique where the hero died onstage. It introduced a poetry of feelings into the theatre of conventions; the sufferings of the nymph Sangaride and the shepherd Atys, the jealousy of the goddess Cybèle and the unforgiving dictates of her cult, illustrate the confusion of young love confronted with a world of intransigeance and sacrifice.

John Medeski, Billy Martin and Chris Wood have re-defined the musical possibilities of the jazz trio. With a remarkable career spanning two decades, the three New Yorkers have become masters of groove and excel on stage. They communicate with their audience with a skill close to telepathy, play legendary gigs, in an instinctive and vastly enjoyable style. Their concert at Cully in 2012 is still in everyone's memory. After a great number of live and studio recordings, their latest trilogy, 'Radiolarians', is a treasure trove of devastating riffs, revisited on stage according to the mood and inclination of the moment. With funk gimmicks and bluesy phrasings, they borrow from a wealth of musical references and turn them into a veritable sound explosion. In this concert, they are accompanied by the immense guitarist Nels Cline, equally at ease on John Coltrane classics as when he plays with alternative rock band Wilco.

Since their student days at the Conservatoire, pianist Fred Nardin, saxophonist Jon Boutellier, trombonist Bastien Ballaz and trumpeter David Enhco have been joint leaders of the band and the main contributors to its arrangements. The 18 brilliant members of the band are not just fans of Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Thad Jones. For them, playing with this remarkable group of musicians is a chance to experiment with new ideas. For this exceptional night under the watchful eye of the great Quincy Jones, the band chose to revisit a selection of themes composed by Quincy over the past six decades. Wouldn't it be perfect if Mr. Jones suddenly decided to conduct some of his favourite arrangements? The ideal moment would seem to be when The Amazing Keystone Big Band will call on special guest Michel Hausser. The vibraphonist is coming directly from Alsace with a composition especially written for him by Quincy Jones.

Jaime Woods at the International Jazz Festival of Montréal 2016 Like many before her, Jaime Woods' career began in a church. Learning and sharpening her work on the Gospel scene, in Chicago, she moved in the East Coast for a brief schooling at Berklee College. The opportunity there to explore different types of music pushed her towards New York, and in particular Brooklyn. Jaime has since been into strong collaborations with Bilal, Casey Benjamin, Gadget, Cloche Jennah, Jose James, Emily King, Nick Hakim, Roy Hargrove, Kendra Foster, Gary Bartz, Lalah Hathaway, Haitus Kaiyote... Leaning on her soul voice, upon a precise and delicate instrumentation, Jaime is undoubtedly a stand-out artist who shows, despite her 25 years, a great maturity and true sensitivity.

One of the most original and exciting bands to emerge in years, Get The Blessing was formed by drummer Clive Deamer and bassist Jim Barr, rythm section of trip-hop's legendary band Portishead. Get The Blessing have stormed onto the scene, taking riffs and rhythms from rock, punk and dance music and artfully welding them onto inventive wild jazz improvisations, all colliding in a joyous celebration of sound. With trumpeter Pete Judge and saxophonist Jake McMurchie from Superfurry Animals completing the line-up, Get The Blessing's rocking tunes and snappy arrangements create a genre-bending blend of sounds that is all their own, flirting slyly with jazz while pounding the dancefloor with their 'gloriously powerful sound' (BBC Music Magazine). Get The Blessing wear their jazz credentials lightly but defiantly. The intricate but rock-solid rhythm section forms the gloss that holds Get the Blessing together, with the dual saxophone and trumpet frontline working with the bass to create melodies and harmonies.
