Three girls and two boys, all from the most renowned vocal groups, sing with mischievous vigor a repertoire ranging from great classics to rock, mixing disco anthems, iconic French pop hits deliberately twisted, film music… They use their voices like true athletes, juggling from the deepest to the highest notes in original arrangements tailored to fit.
They would make you forget that the art of a cappella singing is a daring feat, without a safety net, and they offer you the rare joy of an exceptional blend of humor and virtuosity.
Their universe, strict like classical music, unrestrained like the music hall, is unlike any other and aims above all to be funny.
Five strange “hunters” arrive on earth to collect a sample of notes, rhythms, lyrics, and sounds…
From the forest of Rambouillet to the arid plains of Mexico, passing through the great gallery of the Louvre Museum (and an encounter with Mona Lisa), our travelers in time and sound cross five centuries of music and make strange discoveries…
A quest that leads them from Bach to Offenbach, passing through Prince, the Rolling Stones, Brel, and Gainsbourg… not to mention a sharp potpourri of movie themes.
A delightful mix of vocal performance, comedy, and total fantasy.
