A unique formation in the world, bringing together musicians of a new generation, playing each repertoire on the appropriate historical instruments, Les Siècles puts into perspective in a relevant and unexpected way, several centuries of musical creation. In partnership with the Berlioz Festival and Les Siècles directed by François-Xavier Roth, this recording of La Symphonie fantastique is located in the courtyard of the Château Louis XI in La Côte Saint-André, the birth place of the great composer Hector Berlioz on December 11, 1903. Berlioz's masterpiece, the first great success, owes its origins to a double encounter: an actress, Harriet Smithson, in 1827 during a performance of Hamlet by Shakespeare in Paris and Beethoven's symphonies.
