Airs by Purcell transfigured could be the subtitle of this programme, VoX.
It is indeed the music of this brilliant English composer of the Baroque period that we are dealing with, but David Chevallier works this fabulous material like an alchemist, keeping the active principles and adding his own secret ingredients.
Arias for solo voice become trios, harmonies and rhythms are sometimes distorted, sometimes unchanged, a new entity​​
emerges, a kind of Janus showing his two faces, the old and the new.
It's all about striking a balance between respect for the original work and creative freedom.
David Chevallier, well-versed in this exercise, offers to rediscover Purcell through his own personal prism, surrounded by three emblematic voices ready for any adventure.
