Each summer, the splendid bay of Talloires is the theatre of this imposing alchemy. The fireworks fill with wonder the public at the rythm of the jazz, variety and classical compositions.
Often, dancers and acrobats accompany musicians and actors to offer a complete spectacle, near the universe of Music Hall.
