🎵 VOICES OF THE ANIMALS When animals become musicians

Artistic expression and creativity are one of the three key pillars of the Chemin 28 experience. Jean-Paul Dessy will guide us into this vibrant realm throughout the event—and especially on the second night—with a very special performance

Voices of the Animals is a groundbreaking composition featuring animals, in which the songs and cries of animals become instruments in their own right. In his sound laboratory, Jean-Paul Dessy transforms the captivating voices of the wild into sophisticated musical scores that interact with his cello. A pioneering work that pushes the boundaries of musical creation, it resonates deeply with the theme of Chemin 28 “boldness in the service of life.”

You're welcome! What if ... silence, writing and introspection were part of your path?
