Archi Beethoven – Sonata Form

It all stems from an approach developed by conductor Laurence Equilbey. She imagines a visual representation of the sonata form to help grasp the global coherence, structure, and principles of its construction. In this way, the musical architecture, visible in the score, takes on a new reality, discernible and easily accessible by all, without violating the composer’s intention. The architecture becomes sculpture. The user is drawn into an interactive musical promenade, a sensory experience.

As the conductor, musical director, and founder of Insula orchestra and accentus, Laurence Equilbey’s work embodies a blend of artistic excellence and inclusive and innovative projects. Every season at the Seine Musicale, Equilbey develops stage performances with artists from diverse backgrounds, including collaborations with Yoann Bourgeois, Marie-Agnès Gillot, la Fura dels Baus, and Mat Collishaw.
