Les Voix Humaines by Marin Marais
Hayden Chisholm – alto sax 
Susanne Szambelan – cello 

Les Voix Humaines is an instrumental piece composed by Marin Marais in 1701 and is considered the best-known work from his second book for viola da gamba. The renowned gambist and composer significantly expanded the repertoire of this instrument under Louis XIV. Hayden Chisholm and Susanne Szambelan present a new interpretation with alto saxophone and cello, in which improvisations and a shruti box also play a part.

Wabi Sabi à la Ortiz
Hilary Jeffery – trombone, trumpet
Martin Heinze – double bass 

This piece is an open structure, created on the basis of a recercada – an instrumental piece that originally served as a free improvisational prelude for playing and tuning instruments. The piece originates from the famous ornamentation and gamba school “Trattado de Glosas” (1553) by Diego Ortiz, in which the musical themes are played from different perspectives, inspired by the Japanese concept of wabi sabi (intuitive, present, rough, relative, imperfect). The piece moves from a very abstract to an almost classical rendition of the main theme.

In keeping with the exhibition by artist Gisèle Vienne, we will create paper puppets. We will then tell a story together with your puppets and let the shadows dance.
