In 2025, France celebrates the 140th anniversary of Victor Hugo’s death, which occurred on 22 May 1885.
Poet, playwright, novelist, essayist, politician and activist, Hugo was a multifaceted figure who illuminated the 19th century.
With the album ‘Choses vues… et chantées!’, Pauline Courtin, Antoine Palloc and Christophe Barbier pay tribute to this towering figure.
Soprano, pianist and narrator weave a dialogue between music and literature, combining songs composed on Hugo’s poetry by Fauré, Bizet, Liszt, Hahn, and Britten, with excerpts from Choses vues – a deeply personal journal chronicling a life of engagement.
This musical reinterpretation highlights the enduring relevance of Hugo’s thought and reminds us how his visionary optimism can still light our way today.
