Satire Satie
In Satire Satie, everything revolves around one of Satie's most remarkable masterpieces: Parade, a notorious "succès de scandale" in French music history. Satie flirts with the allure of nonsense and bad taste, but above all, showcases his musical humor. The masterpieces of Poulenc and Stravinsky join in the festive French sound orgy of the 1920s.
The musicians in charge are I SOLISTI, the Antwerp-based ensemble of wind instruments that fearlessly embraces adventure and always performs on the cutting edge.
Video artist Lise Bruyneel adds an extra atmosphere with lively text collages from Satie's writings and those of his equally eccentric contemporaries.
