SONG/jeux [sɔ̃ʒ] Dreams (2020-24)

La Belle Equipe, equal voices ensemble

Singing, dreaming, playing, dreaming and singing.
A show for families, children and adults mixed,
a show to discover art music without overthinking.

If Music was a game for dreaming

By “La Belle Equipe” : 5 singers

With a malicious complicity, they delight us with short a capella pieces sometimes humorous or more serious and nostalgic. As in a dream, they invite composers and poets of works to tell us their lives, their dreams, their rivalries.

They  draw the music, invent the soundtrack of a comic strip, create a score for toys,  «slam» a poem of love, and sing to have fun.

From the nursery rhyme to the lyrical melody, from the borborygme to the gibberish, they walk from one sound to the other with appetite and malice.
Through the works of Béla Bartók and György Ligeti, and their research inspired by the popular songs of their country, we meet some of their students, or others from Japan to Brazil via Armenia.

Singing, dreaming, playing, dreaming and singing.
A show for families, children and adults mixed,
a show to discover art music without overthinking.

show commissioned for the exhibition “the colour Symphony or how to paint music ?” Préau des Accoules/Museum for children March 2021
