An evening in two parts, around the voices and polyrhythms of West Africa.
First, a “live electronic” creation, performed by Les Parallèles (Nicolas Canot / Cyrille Koutcheroff) on modular synthesizers and machines, a tribute to the great culture of Afrobeat and its immense contribution to the history of electronic music and techno, from the legendary Fela Kuti and Tony Allen to the machines and turntables of the mythical Jeff Mills or Carl Craig.
Then Alex Labart (aka Humana) will perform a DJ set where the public will be invited to dance and exchange on the stage, with a slope as pronounced as surprising!
An evening where the Opéra de Reims breaks the codes by inviting the Lune Music label to give free rein to electro, machines, improvisation and the art of remix.
