Description
It is a historical success of the Temporada Alta: eight musicians, a countertenor, three choral voices and a dancer, most of them with Congolese roots, offer their own take on Bach, Gluck, Händel, Monteverdi and Vivaldi. Directed by Alain Platel.
This concert springs from the charm of the dandies of Kinshasha and the talent of the iconoclast Platel. It blends classical music with traditional Congolese music, with touches of jazz and rock. It is a lively, exuberant show, a burst of energy, beauty and emotion.
