Incises
As a tribute to the work of Pierre Boulez (1925-2016), the ‘Incises’ label distinguishes the many contemporary offerings that dot the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence programme. Besides, it highlights this year the figure of the composer and conductor as part of the year-long celebration of the centenary of his birth.
