Opposites attract! At least in this concert. François-Xavier Roth and his original sound orchestra Les Siècles combine works by György Ligeti and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – for which the musicians will even be swapping instruments. Because Les Siècles is one of the few orchestras that plays every work in their extensive repertoire on the appropriate historical instruments.
