ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

Here are three versions of the timeless story of love and jealousy of Pelléas and Mélisande.
Originally a play by Belgian author Maurice Maeterlinck, created in 1893, the work inspired numerous composers, including Claude Debussy who adapted the piece into an opera.

The dramatic version is an extract from the play by Maurice Maeterlinck with Edith Garnier and Philippe Barge.
The lyrical version is sung by Françoise Doué and André Jobin, to music by Claude Debussy.
The choreographic version by Michel Rayne is performed by Jacqueline Rayet and Jean Pierre Bonnefous, to music by Gabriel Fauré
