Mythical Journey

Our festival Four Hands, themed “Mythical Journey,” was an unforgettable experience!

It's a unique live performance bringing together the talents of visual artist Isabelle Braemer and the musical ensemble Duo Hands. In this immersive experience, art and music intertwine as a collaborative artwork is created before your eyes.

We tried to bring this experience to you with two Lyon-based painters — Svetlana Arefiev and Isabelle Braemer — along with our guest stars, the Duo Hands, composed of Alexandra Roshchina and Alain Jacquon.

This talented piano duo offers a rich and varied repertoire, known for their interpretations of both classical and contemporary pieces.

🎶 Musical Program by Duo Hands 🎹
Performed by Alexandra Roshchina & Alain Jacquon

Gluck – Melody from Orpheus and Eurydice

Beethoven – Overture to The Creatures of Prometheus

Saint-Saëns – Dalila’s Aria from Samson and Delilah

Mussorgsky – Night on Bald Mountain

Gounod – Waltz from the opera Faust

Witness the fusion of two artistic languages—brushstroke and melody—in real time. From the first mark to the final flourish, you’ll see a new piece come to life, shaped by spontaneity, emotion, and shared inspiration.

Why do people love myths?

Myths have a unique ability to captivate the imagination across generations. Their appeal lies in their power to transcend time and culture, offering timeless narratives that resonate with the deepest aspects of the human experience.

A heartfelt thank you to all the spectators who participated and contributed to the success of this event!
