As night slowly gives way to day, La Cité Bleue invites you to experience a rare moment: two dawn concerts conceived by pianist and composer Alain Roche, poetically titled L’Heure Bleue.
Alain Roche plays the piano as the sky begins to lighten. Not quite night, not quite day: this fleeting moment, between dusk and dawn, becomes the perfect setting for music that seeks not to impose itself but to listen to the silence. A sensitive, enveloping, almost meditative experience, where music blends with the passage of time.
Far from the conventions of a traditional concert, L’Heure Bleue invites a different kind of listening—introspective, open, receptive. Comfortably seated, the listener allows the vibrations of the piano to wash over them, guided by the first light of dawn. Everything gently awakens: sound, body, space, and day.
These dawn concerts offer a unique experience that blends contemporary music, performance art, and sensory exploration. A timeless event that offers a different way to start your day. Let the poetry of dawn awaken you.
