Since its creation in 2011, the Ensemble Sottovoce keep a really important part of their work learning contemporary works and studying creation with living composers. Creation is expressing by several types of writing, but there is still one who cares a lot to us: sharing with the audiences. We dedicate the "creastructure" for all of composers who trusted in us in order to create the very first performance of their pieces. We thank them a lot for their trust and we are so grateful doing this wonderful mission they gave to us. World tour about the latest collaborations we did thanks to the magic of social medias.

Les pièces à quatre voix représentent la forme la plus répandue de la musique vocale. Pourtant, s’il est courant de les entendre dans de grands ensembles, les interprétations en effectifs réduits sont plutôt rares. C’est tout le pari pris par l’Ensemble Sottovoce avec ce programme A Cappella (...) A Cappella The four voices are the most common form of vocal music. However, if it is common to hear them in large ensembles, interpretations in reduced numbers are rather rare. This is the whole gamble taken by the Ensemble Sottovoce with this A Cappella program, tailor-made for four or five singers who will have on stage no other instrument than their own voices. This program was therefore designed to show the diversity of the vocal repertoire. From the beginnings of baroque music (Victoria, Byrd, Philipps, Arbeau) to contemporary pieces and recent creations (Kelmendi, Paulus), from so-called learned music to vocal jazz (Andrews Sisters), passing by traditional tunes ( Simon & Garfungel, The Beatles), "A Cappella" invites you on a great journey through music. A timeless moment through the ages, between centuries-old tradition and popular tunes known to all. a journey with a thousand resonances that will not leave you speechless! Technical elements: 1:30 with intermission Number of 4 or 5 singers.
