The «Belle équipe» is an amateur vocal group. The composer, Sébastien Béranger will write specifically for their voices, record them, transform this sound material, and then design a custom-made score where the choir will sing with the electronic metamorphoses of itself!
The project title “Mirrors||Echoes” reflects this desire for dialogue between acoustic singing and its transformations by the machine.
