Programme:

23h30 Alizarina Quartet live (Breizh / FR)

Alizarina is a red pigment extracted from a vegetable root: The madder of the dyers. Alizarina is lively, it moves, it’s organic, floral and poetic. Alizarina Quartet offers compositions inspired by traditional elements, a sonic epic from Brittany to Romania, sometimes infused with oriental warmth. or South American. Everything is always guided by the clarinet with klezmer and classical accents. An electronic carpet supports and energizes the acoustic timbres of the strings and wraps itself in a frank and lively rhythm. An energetic electronic sound that sublimates the acoustic, classical and traditional influences of the world, aided by poetic texts anchored in the current era.
