De la nuit à la lumière – Piano recital at Château de Labourdonnais

Château de Labourdonnais will set the scene for an evening of music on Thursday 5 November. As dusk falls, the elegance of the Château and its gardens will provide an intimate setting for a recital dedicated to French music, performed by pianist Nouchine Schopfer.

Entitled De la Nuit à la Lumière, the programme will feature works by Gabriel Fauré, Maurice Ravel and César Franck. Throughout the evening, the music will move between lyricism, poetry and colour, gradually unfolding from the intimacy of night towards a brighter, more radiant light.

The setting of the Château will lend the evening a special sense of place. Its architecture, gardens and peaceful surroundings will provide a natural backdrop for this meeting of music and heritage, inviting guests to slow down and savour the moment.

With a background in classical ballet, Nouchine Schopfer naturally gravitated towards the piano at the age of nine, going on to pursue advanced training at the conservatoire. Now based in Mauritius for the past three years, she regularly performs recitals at Château de Labourdonnais.
