In the context of a new collaboration labeled “Musique en scène” between the department of Contemporary Music and the Theater department of the Montserrat Caballé conservatory, the advanced students from these disciplines present a free show: “Le verbe et le rythme,” organized in partnership with the town of Le Soler, at the François-Calvet space (at the Idem site), Thursday, April 16 at 7 p.m.
Information and reservations on the Conservatory’s website, in the cultural season ticketing section crr-perpignanmediterraneemetropole.fr/billeterie/.
Spoken songs, poems set to music, scenes from films with sound and fury, “Le verbe et le rythme” invites us to explore various artistic forms combining musical rhythm and the evocative power of text. The show will stage and set to music, the experiments of the beat generation and Jack Kerouac facing jazz, text songs inspired by classical or modern poetry, the exuberance of the avant-garde of the seventies, as well as the fathers of rap and slam. Plus, some monologues in music from the seventh art and other unclassifiable pieces. With the students in cycle 3 of the Contemporary Music and Theater departments of the conservatory; musical direction and coordination by Alexandre Augé, staging by Christophe Caustier.
