The repertoire includes works by Jean Cras, Alan Stivell, Didier Squiban, Yann Tiersen, Mel Bonis, Guy Ropartz, Charles Koechlin and Rhené Bâton.
And on the creative side, we'll be discovering music by Melaine Dalibert, Anthony Girard, Farnaz Modarresifar, Caroline Marçot, Benoît Menut, Florentine Mulsant and Mikel Urquiza.

16H30-17H00: Solo GAVOTTEN:
The GAVOTTEN solo is a hybrid between the famous Breton dance known as 'gavotte', reworked as if it were in a Baroque opera, and a dance inherited from German dance in the 1930s.
The dance is accompanied by Basque and Icelandic music. Yohann Baran performs this part, bringing his own element of playfulness to the piece, particularly in the proposed dissociation of the upper and lower parts of the body, and between the left and right sides, finely distilling states of body that also play on imbalances.
As for the music, Aurélien Richard, musician-choreographer, has decided to use two toy pianos instead of a grand piano.
