This 18th edition will be special as the Alp’harmonia association, which organizes it, celebrates its 20th anniversary in a cabaret atmosphere, featuring a dinner show with numerous artists who will delight you with songs, music, and stories…
This year, the festival will take place in two parts, on the program:
Friday, May 11, in Peillon at 7:30 PM at Salle de la Sousta: Òc Cabaret Evening
With L’Escabòt and its popular songs from the Occitan Valleys of Italy. This choir offers a repertoire of polyphonic songs from the tradition of the Occitan valleys of Italy to Provence, from Languedoc to Gascony, radiating the joy of singing and the passion for the language.
Accompanied by the following artists…
Richard Cairaschi From our life down below, it’s from his village high above that he speaks best… With laughter and tenderness, of course.
Mabrune and her jorgina accompany us in songs, in her garden of Love.
Les Latines Three singers who will share with you, through festive, sacred popular songs, moments of joy and emotion.
Aurélia Berkeley The vibrations of her voice blend with those of her Panduri, to introduce us to traditional Georgian singing.
Balandrin Their songs and the blending of their voices take us on paths where love, celebrations, work, struggles, and friendships intersect.
Saturday, May 12, in Contes at 8:30 PM at Théâtre de l’Hélice: Concert
– 1st part: L’Escabòt
– 2nd part: La Compagnie Rassegna
A sextet gathered around songs from Sicily, Spain, western Algeria, or Occitania. These singer-musicians blend their heritages, rhythms, poems, and melodies with complicity and experience to transpose the strength and spontaneity of informal musical gatherings onto the stage.
…3rd part: meeting with the artists over mulled wine and Swiss chard pies.
