Better known for its extraordinary collections of 19th-century art, the Musée d’Orsay is also a thriving venue for chamber music and solo recitals. Its current season puts the spotlight on Russian composers. On November 30 soprano Urszula Kryger and alto Jadwiga Rappé sing duets by Shostakovitch, Rimsky-Korsakov, Tchaikovsky and others, while on Dec 5 pianist Daria Fadeeva gives a recital featuring Scriabine’s ‘Fantaisie’, Rachmaninov’s Sonata No 2 and gripping ‘Variations on a Theme’ by Corelli.
