Aria da Capo

Is adolescence a promise or a painful wait, a rare moment of sharpness or of confusion, a surge or torpor? What melancholic or ecstatic states does it foster?

deux jeunes côte-à-côte se posant des questions.

If it were a musical style, what would it be? Scherzando, agitato, andante ma non troppo, four up-and-coming artists talk about what preoccupies them all the time: sex, music, friendship, until the end of the night.

Areski, Guilain, Victor, and Adèle. One plays the violin, another the bassoon, a third the trombone, the fourth sings and plays the piano. Séverine Chavrier, who is both director and musician, has listened attentively and curiously to their music as much as to their moods, their hopes, their worries, their joys, and their sorrows. And because she likes to multiply points of view, video is present with the use of smartphones as an extension of the hand for a whole generation. In exchange, they offer her the fragility of adolescence, the energy of beginnings, and the irony and intransigence of youth.

The result of joint research into music and improvisation, this creation by the director of Comédie de Genève captures the intensity of the construction of desire in a world open to all possibilities.
