GUITAR +

Embarquez pour les terres méditerranéennes et orientales ! Le concert Guitar + ne vous laissera pas insensible : il vous réjouira ou vous laissera un petit pincement (de cordes) au cœur.

Volg ons in een reis van het oude Mesopotamie, over de Middellandse Zee naar het Engelland van Downland tot de verenigde staten over de Atlantische Oceaan. Guitar + zal je niet onverschillig laten : het getokkel van snaren zal je een hart onder de riem steken of misschien een steek in je hart geven.

Once upon a time, when there were still Maidens and Knights, it happened that even they did not fully enjoy their lives. That state of melancholia was cured by either playing the lute, or listening to lute musiic. Soothing. An Italian would say: ' Se non e vero e ben trovato'.

But actually the Lute came to us through the Mesopotanian civilisation, and the later Arab societies where it was called the Oud. So Oud became Lute became Guitar became Electric Guitar. Escapades thus made a journey over the lands of our earth, seeking, in a way, healing music.
