Le Banquet des Temps Futurs

Saxophonist Alex Augé stood out with his Solipsies where the effects of the multiple sound tracks worked live and the superimpositions of sounds and rhythms made his performance a great moment in today’s music. Franck Garcia and his keyboards bewitched the public in the company of Stéphanie Fontanarosa during a magnetic journey devoted to works by Ligeti, Adams, Wyatt. Brought together by the festival for this creation, the two artists crossed their sensibilities and their universes, merging languages ​​and writings. Surrounded by opera singer Vanessa Hidden, drummer Robinson Rouquet and pianist Stéphanie Fontanarosa, they invite us to a concert dressed in lights and video images.
