The vocal creation company Chants Libres will be honoured at La Grande Nuit 2020, a free event presented by the GRMS (Groupe de Recherche sur la Médiatisation du Son), as part of Nuit Blanche. This 2nd edition is dedicated to the theme voice and immersion, and celebrates the 30th anniversary of Chants Libres by devoting part of the program to its creations. You will be invited to delve in the darkness under a dome of 32 loudspeakers, to live an immersive experience of several key works the company has created since 1990 under the artistic direction of Pauline Vaillancourt.
