Cascade

Precise, elegant and expressive, and funny too, the dance of Cecile Loyer is full of conflicting states, oscillating between abstraction and theatricality, reserve and excess. The choreographer, who has already fused dance with other worlds – musical, literary, even cinematographic – here works with the double bassist and composer Joelle Léandre, a virtuosic, iconoclastic artist, recognised in particular for her collaborations with poets, directors and choreographers.

“Cascade” is presented as a proliferation of signs, movements, colours and sounds which accumulate, multiply, condense, interweave, come undone, play and challenge each other in the hands of a surprising duo. Order and disorder are connected in a multitude of tableaux, a succession of surges.

Loyer, Cécile

The author of many works, in 2000 she founded her own company, C.LOY, with which she has created around 12 pieces.

Léandre, Joëlle

Double bass player of contemporary music, an improviser and composer, Joelle Léandre has worked notably with Merce Cunningham, John Cage and with many of the great names of jazz and improvisation.

Joelle Léandre and Cécile Loyer danced together for the first time in 2008 in the piece “Sho-bo-gen-zo”, a work by Josef Nadj, and also performed “Cascade” at the Pantin CND (National Dance Centre) on 13 and 14 March 2013.

If the 19th century is that of romanticism, the entry into the new century is synonymous of modernity! It was a few decades later that it would be assigned, a posteriori, the name of “neo-classical”.
