- Arte
It was a crazy idea to bring together the Oud and the Viola da Gamba, two traditional instruments from very different cultures. It was also a challenge to put side by side Arab and Western poets, from all eras. To see how they could dialogue and testify together as a unity.
It is however this challenge that the show "Fratarabie" has accepted. In the same show, the Arabic language and the French language, Verlaine and Ibn Battuta, the harmony of the Oud and the harmony of the Viola.
A tasty mixture of languages and melodies coming from different countries. Two cultures that a younger generation wishes to see more collaboration for the benefit of all, to deliver a message of peace.
The texts spoken with passion by Hadia Laghsini and Alexandre Risso answer to the notes of the Oud of Hussam Aliwat and Valentin Tournet's Viola de Gambe. The spectator is captivated by the symbolic force of these vocal and musical presences. The meditation invites itself and continues naturally once the actors have left and the instruments put away."
The Compagnie de l'Homme is a French theater company.
With this project "Fratarabie", Alexandre Risso, Hadia Laghsini and Valentin Tournet take the path of a theme that is dear to them. That of intercultural dialogue.
Have a good listening !
