At Château de Lourmarin, Elise Bertrand and Gaspard Thomas perform De Falla, Mozart, Schumann and Bloch as a violin and piano duo at the 2026 Summer Festival in Luberon.
Château de Lourmarin, 2 avenue Laurent Vibert, 84160, Lourmarin
Monday 17 August 2026 from 9 pm.
The Château de Lourmarin welcomes Elise Bertrand on violin and Gaspard Thomas on piano for a duo concert as part of the Summer Music Festival programme.
From De Falla to Mozart, from Schumann to Bloch, this evening offers a musical journey through Iberian colours, classical clarity, Romantic momentum and spiritual depth.
In the heritage setting of the château, the dialogue between violin and piano promises an expressive, sensitive and contrasting evening.
The programme opens with De Falla’s Spanish Suite, a luminous work carried by Iberian colours, rhythmic energy and great expressive vitality.
Mozart’s Sonata in B-flat major, K. 454 then brings a different atmosphere, clearer and more elegant. Violin and piano engage in a refined dialogue, in a subtle balance of grace, precision and expressiveness.
After the interval, the evening continues with Schumann’s Sonata No. 1, Op. 105, passionate and full of contrast, followed by Bloch’s Sonata No. 2 “Poème mystique”, a profound, inspired and intensely poetic work.
Did you know?
Mozart’s Sonata in B-flat major, K. 454 is one of the composer’s great works for violin and piano. In this sonata, the two instruments converse as equals, with great clarity of writing and Mozart’s unmistakable expressiveness.
Interval
The concert begins at 9 pm. Doors open from 8 pm, allowing audiences to enjoy the terraces of the Château de Lourmarin and share a picnic before the concert.
An ideal summer interlude combining chamber music, heritage and the Luberon art of living.
