With its series Suites chorales, which began in 2013, the group is also adapting this collection into stage plays. Following the dazzling Suite n°1, the festival is now presenting the world premiere of Suite n°2, an anthology of sound documents vocally reproduced by five soloists. In this musical comedy words pop up that have been said somewhere already. It is a piece where the action happens only through what is being said: the hesitations, outbursts, silent whispers and subtle tones of the voices. Suite n°2 is a fun and exhilarating work that shows just how much the world is made up of words.
