Concert d'orgue - 14 août
ManigodLocation : Eglise Saint-Pierre
Presentation
The Manigod Tourist Office invites you to discover the organ of its Saint-Pierre Church!
Exceptional to the eye, the Manigod organ is equally exceptional to the ear.
Its strong personality and secret sonorities are unrivalled in the region. A number of concerts will be held in the church this summer featuring our magnificent organ, accompanied by other instruments:
August 14: Organ and Alphorn concert
by Eric Latour and Robert Scotton
Eric Latour discovered music through the great tradition of cathedral choirs. At Rouen Cathedral in Normandy, he was introduced to classical and religious music. The organ naturally found its place in this world. At the age of 14, Eric Latour played his first grandstand in Rouen every Sunday.
At the Rouen Conservatoire, he discovered contemporary music and quickly became a budding specialist in twentieth-century music. He went on to win first prizes in chamber music, composition and organ in Louis Thiry's class.
Robert SCOTTON has evolved in a highly diverse and enriching musical environment as an instrumentalist, singer, choirmaster and composer. He studied euphonium, piano and singing at the conservatoire in Annecy (Haute Savoie), but it was as a self-taught musician that he turned to the alphorn and developed a passion for the instrument. He founded and directs the Alphorn group ‘Les Sonneurs de Savoye’ and the trio ‘Les Coralpins’, both winners of the Nendaz International Alphorn Competition on several occasions. His personal approach and teaching methods reveal the many facets of the instrument and allow players to discover new interpretative sensations.
