By the way, what is the sound of water ? Take one element : water. Mix it with a body language full of grace, add the Percussions de Strasbourg and you get a delicious moment full of sounds and poetry ! Karl Naëgelen, composer, shapes an unseizable substance, the ondulating and rippling water as the waving sound. Concrete but solid, this ultimate oneiric element here becomes the center and the unity of this show. A refreshing shower as a symphonic poem without any words, a concept where we constantly call for an image, a show where we let ourselves rocked into an unusual reverie…
