Michel Lysight on Radio Kiosk

Une formidable émission sur Kiosk Radio qui vous permettra de découvrir des extraits de trois de mes œuvres (“L’Œuvre au Rouge” par Tetracelli, “Oréades” et “Les Chants de Casanova”) ainsi que d’autres pièces de compositeurs belges (César Franck, Joseph Jongen etc.). Merci à Olivier Verset, qui décloisonne le “classique” pour le faire partager par le plus grand nombre.
