French Sound Poetry Meets Fairy Tales and Theater

Classical Matinee at Palais Bellevue

On November 1, 2026, Palais Bellevue in Kassel invites you to a classical matinee featuring a French-themed program. The focus will be on works by Erik Satie, Gabriel Fauré, and Claude Debussy. Their music combines characteristic timbres, poetic moods, and a particular sensitivity to atmosphere and expression.

Under the title Concert à la française, the musical morning is enhanced by the story “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse”. The concert thus combines several forms of storytelling: classical music, fairy tales, and theater. The musically narrated story creates a framework in which the music does not stand alone but interacts with a visual narrative and scenic elements.

The program is aimed at visitors who want to experience classical music in a special connection with a narrated story. The works of Satie, Fauré, and Debussy form the musical core of the matinee. Additionally, the story offers different approaches through its connection of concert, fairy tale, and theater.
