La version hollywoodienne des studios Disney s’éloigne du roman italien d’origine : le petit garçon au cœur tendre du maître américain diffère radicalement du gamin insupportable imaginé par Collodi. C’est ce personnage a priori peu sympathique que le dramaturge Edouard Signolet a choisi pour sa version de Pinocchio, dans laquelle le pantin de bois, têtu, malpoli et ingrat doit vivre ses aventures pour évoluer et grandir. Le compositeur : Né en 1950, Laurent Petitgirard a étudié le piano avec Serge Petitgirard et la composition avec Alain Kremski. Musicien éclectique, sa carrière de compositeur de musique symphonique, d’opéras et de musique de chambre se double d'une importante activité de chef d'orchestre. Laurent Petitgirard a également composé de nombreuses musiques de films pour des metteurs en scène tels Otto Preminger, Jacques Demy, Francis Girod, Peter Kassovitz.

  • Download Augustin Dumay Biography
    Augustin Dumay International critics have compared Augustin Dumay to the great violinists of the 20th century, describing him as a “great classical stylist”, a reputation underscored by his outstanding recordings for Deutsche Grammophon: Beethoven’s complete sonatas with Maria João Pires, a set that “surely ranks with Grumiaux/Haskil, Menuhin/Kempff, or Perlman/Ashkenazy” (International Piano), Brahms’ trios in which “the Milstein legacy in Dumay’s playing is wonderfully apparent” (Gramophone), and Mozart’s concertos with the Camerata Salzburg, “without exaggeration one of the finest Mozart violin concerto discs ever made” (Classic CD), in which he “confirms that he is an exceptional interpreter of Mozart as were Stern or Grumiaux before him” (Classica). Born into a family of musicians – his mother is a cellist and pianist, his father an amateur violinist – Augustin Dumay started violin lessons at the age of 5, after attending a concert by Nathan Milstein. Aged ten, he entered the Paris Conservatoire, winning the premier prix at the age of thirteen. His first concert at the Théâtre des Champs- Élysée followed a year later and he then appeared at the Montreux Festival, playing for Joseph Szigeti and Henryk Szeryng, who invited him to replace him on a tour of South America. On his return, Augustin Dumay worked in Paris with Nathan Milstein, who said of him: “I believe he will take his place amongt the great violinists of the year 2000”. He then went on to work in Brussels with Arthur Grumiaux for five years. He soon became familiar to concert audiences in France, but his international career took off thanks to his encounter with Herbert von Karajan.
