Actualités
TOUR – CHIEN LUNE
27 & 28 february – 1st march // Les Allées Chantent
Trio made up of Elvire Jouve (drums, synthesizer, metallophone), Damien Sabatier (saxophones, Shruti, Jew’s harp, calls…) and Pascal Berne (double bass, arrangements, compositions).
Between Amerindian music, jazz and classical music, Moondog, an iconoclastic American composer who was instantly recognizable, left a remarkable mark on 20th-century music. Chien Lune takes up this legacy and offers a lively, singular reinterpretation.
CONCERT – AU COEUR DE L’HIVER
27 march – 20h00 // Centre Culturel de Vichy (03)
With Jean-Marc Rochette, François Raulin & Richard Bonnet
RESIDENCY – TERRES FROIDES
Until 14 to 18 december // Centre des Cultures du Mondes
An exploration of the traditional or imaginary music of this vaguely defined territory located in the Dauphiné region, the subject of much speculation.
With Jessica Martin Maresco, Alice Perret & Michel Mandel
