Solalie presents seven unique musical landscapes linked to nature. Through sounds, gestures and lights, the flow of a stream weaves its way between rocks, revealing a few fish here and there; tree stumps resonate, while insects, butterflies and birds twirl in an incessant dance amid grasses, flowers and mushrooms. Cords sway, criss-cross and snake over the ground, to the sound of tinkling bells. Funny hairy spheres whirl merrily about, while curious tubes flash and enter the dance.
Each landscape comes to life and unfolds under the fingers of the two musicians, who give life to the materials of which they are composed. They transform the sounds of the various elements using several real-time electronic devices, which react to their gestures and dynamics via motion sensors. The two performers mix and interact with the live music they produce.
Artistic Director Lynda says: “Emmanuelle Lizére aka “Tigouli” is one of the most talented and versatile music and performance artists who creates captivating performance in which children are centred as co-creators of moments. This is Tigouli’s second time at WeeFestival after her beautiful performances last year of Babula Laina and Tintinnabile.”

About Emmanuelle Lizère -Tigouli
Tigouli is an organization whose artistic project is a result of a musical approach that has been carried out with children for the past twenty years. It is based on non-verbal communication, taking into account the sound and music in its entirety, without boundaries between the two and is presented as a sensory awakening. It is proposed to the children to discover, explore and experiment the various components of music, with the aim of developing or bringing out their creative potential.
