Pasdeloup is putting on a show

Pasdeloup is putting on a show – an exhilarating concert film that brings together the soaring sounds of the Pasdeloup Orchestra, the graceful movements of the IFunamboli dancers, and the cinematic magic of blockbuster soundtracks. Under the masterful baton of composer‑conductor Dirk Brossé, the orchestra explodes into a vibrant montage of film music, from the majestic “Avatar Suite” by Simon Franglen to the cinematic “Grand Gothic Suite” of Elliot Goldenthal, while resonant themes from *Avatar*, *Batman Forever*, and *Batman & Robin* echo across the hall. Featured soloists Arnaud Nuvolone (violin) and Éric Villeminey (cello) each shine with original pieces curated by Brossé, and the beating heart of the performance is amplified by choreographer Fabio Crestale’s dynamic collaboration with the IFunamboli troupe. Together, the dancers interpret two electrifying segments that fuse choreography with orchestral brilliance. The program weaves together contemporary symphonic brilliance and iconic film scores, including John Adams’ “Short Ride in a Fast Machine” and “The Chairman Dances,” Dirk Brossé’s “The Red Cello Concerto” excerpts, and the compelling “Black, White and In Between.” Each composition is carefully selected to highlight the synergy of music, motion, and storytelling, making this concert a must‑see for fans of world‑class orchestral performance and blockbuster soundtracks alike. Join us and celebrate the fusion of arts with the Pasdeloup Orchestra – an unforgettable auditory and visual feast awaits.
