The programme of this concert-show, visiting in particular the magic of Ravel and Mallarmé, crosses the first decades of the 20th century, when Western music, without renouncing its heritage, opens to symbolist poetry, distant cultures, jazz and music-hall. Under the direction of Dylan Corlay, with the exceptional participation of French soprano Marion Tassou, this concert-show blends music, song and poetry, in an original staging by Bénédicte Lesenne. PROGRAMME: «The Child and the Spells» (excerpts), Maurice Ravel «Malagasy Songs», Maurice Ravel «Toccata», Maurice Ravel «Gnossienne», Erik Satie «Blues», Maurice Ravel «The Caterpillar», Dylan Corlay «Tahiti Trot», Dmitri Chostakovitch «Poem in X», Filippo Tommaso Marinetti «War Orchestra», Filippo Tommaso Marinetti «The Gibbet», Maurice Ravel «A throw of the dice», Dylan Corlay «The Shipwrecked Man's Lament», André Gedalge
