Jean-François Zygel, passionate musician, teacher and fascinating speaker, makes the greatest «classi- cal» works, in the broadest sense of the term, available to everyone. With humour and simplicity, enthusiasm and passion, he describes, deciphers, dissects, analyzes and debunks.
In this collection, in partnership with the Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra, Jean-François Zygel unites words and music. Music lessons, combining relaxation and erudition, take novices and anyone lacking in confidence on a challenging adventure for the mind and senses. A VIP pass to the heart of music.
« I want to give people the keys to enter the heart of a work (…) I show how expression springs up, how life is organized, how the Holy Spirit breathes. (…) What we need is to develop the ear’s sensitivity. To hear more is to enjoy more! »
