VIDALA and dance

 

VIDALA and dance In 2017, the Argentinian choreographer and dancer Sol Buffet-Casal of the Libertango Company, based in Lyon, approached the trio for permission to use 3 tracks from their album as well as a title from their other group, “SoulAÿrès”. But very quickly, it became obvious that the three musicians would perform live in this “Heridas” creation, which combines tango dance, contemporary dance, circus arts, video and live music. At the choreographer’s request, Séverine SoulAÿrès revisited a magnificent tango, the highlight of this creation, which was premiered in April 2018 at the Sémaphore d'Irigny.

 

The complicity is such that VIDALA feels the desire, depending on the occasion, the place, the space, to associate these tango and milonga dances with the concert, thus punctuating 3 pieces at the end of the program, and to offer the public an original “after-concert”, a time of discovery and initiation to these captivating dances.
