Ressonància choir festival - Pyrenean and Mediterranean polyphonies
Saturday 7 February, 5.30pm - Espace Jean Carrère
The 1st day of the Ressonància - Polyphonies Pyrénées et Méditerranée choir festival:
Part 1: Algo'Rythmes & the Dunyach Choir
Algo'Rythmes offers an eclectic musical journey combining French and international variety, jazz, pop and rock, with multi-voice harmonisations.
Founded by Abbé André Dunyach, the Chorale André Dunyach, now directed by Jean-Pierre Olive, brings together nearly 50 choristers and 6 young musicians to sing universal songs that advocate Love, Tolerance, Peace and Sharing.
Part 2: Daunas de cor & In Crescendo
Rooted in the Occitan language that shapes their songs, the singers of Daunas de Còr offer a polyphony that is both rooted and free, awash with colour, heir to a rich vocal tradition and resolutely looking to the future.
The Catalan vocal group In Crescendo, made up of young singers from all over Catalonia, adds a touch of energy and modernity. Winners of the Oh Happy Day! television competition in 2014, the group has since been performing and touring Europe, driven by innovation, creativity and passion.
