Véronique Gens

Circé

Description

Desmarest was a thwarted genius. A precocious musician, he had a great career at the opera from 1693 to 1698. His fate shattered when he abducted the love of his life and fled to Brussels to escape a death sentence. Master of the Chapel of King Philip V of Spain in 1701, then of the Duke of Lorraine, Paris remained off-limits to him until 1720… Circé (1694) was his apotheosis, the meeting of Ulysses and the Sorceress, a superb and supernatural heroine. The dramatic force of the work stimulates the flamboyant Véronique Gens, who embodies the malevolent lover!
