Moli猫re and Charpentier

After his rift with Lully, Moli猫re turned to Marc-Antoine Charpentier for the incidental music for his last productions, including Le Malade imaginaire and Le Mariage forc茅.

Following his very public rift with long-term contributor Jean-Baptiste Lully, Moli猫re turned to Marc-Antoine Charpentier to provide the incidental music for his last theatrical productions.

As part of Radio 3's celebration of Moli猫re's quatercentenary, Lucie Skeaping explores the music Charpentier composed for Moli猫re's final theatre pieces, including the plays Le Malade imaginaire and Le Mariage forc茅.

This programme includes brand new recordings by Radio 3's recently inaugurated New Generation Baroque Ensemble - the aptly named Ensemble Moli猫re.
