Memories-legacies

On the occasion of the Abolition of Slavery day, May 10th

C'est par la force de l'intention poétique et l'adresse de l'écriture qu'Outre-mémoire ressuscite la mémoire interdite des victimes de la traite négrière.

Jean-Luc Tamby

Through a refined yet violent evocation, never excessively sentimental, Outre-mémoire unfolds as a captivating ritual and surpasses the usual concept of "concert". Four musicians will interpret emblematic works by Thierry Pécou creating a ceremony of a quiet contemplation and for memory.

Ensemble Variances in partnership with the Institut du Tout-Monde founded by Edouard Glissant.
