Invited for the “City of Valetta, European Capital of Culture 2018”, the ensemble Des Equilibres returns for just this event to their last opus. The musicians meet again to propose this sublime, and technically difficult, programme to the Malta audience. Three French composers, Joseph-Ermend Bonnal (1880), Albert Roussel (1869-1937) and Jean Cras (1879-1932), three string trios inspired by the marine adventures and coastal shores that marked the lives of their authors, three unjustly misunderstood works, to which Des Equilibres is delighted to do honor.
