What's On in Burgundy 2014?
32nd International festival of baroque opera Beaune
2014
Each week-end in July
 An international line-up of musicians, and an equally international audience enjoy music by the all-time greats. In the magnificent settings of the courtyard and Salle des Pôvres of the Hospices de Beaune and the Basilique Notre-Dame, right, in the centre of town, these concerts are a real occasion, worth going out of your way for.
Celebrating Rameau
To celebrate the 250th anniversary of Rameau's death, (Dijon 1683 - Paris 1764) three of his masterpieces will be performed.
The opening performance of the festival features the famous 'Zaïs' conducted by Christophe Rousset; 'Castor and Pollux' in the revival version of 1754 conducted by Raphaël Pichon (never previously performed in its entirety) and Grands Motets, summit of Rameau’s sacred work, conducted by William Christie will end the festival’s 32nd edition.
