Vox, A word on the tip of the tongue

Amphithéâtre Olivier Messiaen - from 06 to 11 February 2019

Synopsis

The Balbutie Company transforms voice into a creative material to explore the relationship between language, music and the body. With Vox, space becomes a soundscape in which the performers, Juliette Plihon and Nicolas Perrin explore and interact with the various forms of the voice. Stammers, cries, chants, murmurs, and echoes are transformed and spatialized to create a playfully entertaining world. The voice gradually becomes language and then song, creating a setting where the dividing line between artist and audience evaporates.

Duration : 0h30 no interval
