Come aboard Le Dumont d'Urville for an unforgettable voyage.
Rostropovich would have turned 100 this year, and yet one has the impression that he still resonates and shines. To honour his memory, the great Mischa Maisky (who was first his student and later his friend) and some of today’s greatest cellists will revive his vast repertoire each evening: a true celebration of the cello at its highest level.
Under the Atlantic sun, embark on this musical journey through the volcanic archipelagos of the Canary Islands and Cape Verde, where wild nature meets an exceptional cultural heritage. Vibrant Lanzarote, captivating Praia — each port of call immerses you in the unique atmosphere of island cities, where colourful markets blend with architectural treasures reminiscent of the colonial era, tracing a fascinating history shaped by the encounter of European and African influences.
