Macroscope - Small World Project

Date
to

Let this band surprise you with its impressive arsenal of pocket instruments, hand percussion and a double bass. The 3 multi-instrumentalists switch between the ukulele, banjolele, toy piano, carillon, music boxes and many more and demonstrate an impressive collective virtuosity.

Description

The collective’s new show is a veritable cinema for the ear. Both eclectic and limitless, their music harmonizes seamlessly with the immersive images projected by the “macroscope”. This fictional device lets you explore the universe, from infinitely small to infinitely large, while scrutinizing the musicians’ movements on stage through mobile cameras. A dreamlike, poetic journey where sounds and images lend themselves to a reflection on our place in the universe.
