At the “Nuit”, Judith Jáuregui will play different works by several composers including Beethoven, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Debussy and Poulenc.

In the second half, she will perform Schumman’s Arabesque Op. 18, three Novelettes by Poulenc and Mendelssohn’s Variations sérieuses Op. 54.
Judith will share the night with three other pianists, making the soirée a true celebration and tribute to the instrument. François Dumont will perform works by Bach, Beethoven and Ravel, Nathalia Milstein brings a repertoire devoted to Liszt, Ravel and Schumann, and Jean-Paul Gasparian will play works by Brahms, Messiaen, Ravel and Schubert.
