Ève Noire, for violin and African percussion, is both a musical and human experience—an immersive journey into the depths of Western classical music and African musical traditions, leading back to the very origins of humanity.
A Western violinist, an African percussionist, and video projections evoking the original Eve in an ancestral, tribal and dreamlike Africa…
Ève Noire is an immersive stage work bringing together music, lighting design, scenography and video projections through a succession of contrasting tableaux.
Blending the Western tradition of written composition with the oral poetics of West African percussion, Ève Noire unfolds a musical language that is at once classical, contemporary, rooted in tradition and dreamlike.
