FRIDAY, AUGUST 20th, 2010  – DORIAN CONCEPT & TOURE KUNDA // CLARA MOTO & MIMU

The InFiné workshop is also full of surprises. On Friday, the evening is starting with a startling performance. With his improvised jazzy and groovy piano solo, Dorian Concept sets his authenticity as a musician for those who were still questioning it. Then Toure Kunda move on to their own songs in front of a vested audience. On stage, the good mood, fun and vocal control of the two brothers are fascinating.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 19th, 2010 - VANESSA WAGNER & SASHA ROZHDESTVENSKY // MURCOF

The second night of this workshop was dedicated to both classical music (Mozart, Beethoven, Cesar Franck) with the pianist Vanessa Wagner and the violinist Sasha Rozhdestvensky and contemporary electronic music with Murcof.

For the second consecutive year, Infiné is organizing its workshop in an amazing concert venue, the Normandoux Quarry (la Carrière du Normandoux). Unbelievable, breathtaking, peaceful and relaxing as it is, this location creates a unique alchemy between all those attending, from artists to organizers and spectators.  For a week, its friendly summer camp-like atmosphere offers musicians the opportunity to meet and exchange creative ideas. The unusual music collaborations enhance outstanding live-projects which are then performed on stage during three unforgettable nights in the quarry.

Francesco Tristano //

A close musical encounter of the third kind: that might be the most appropriate way to describe what the people on board The Space on July 18 2010 were lucky enough to experience.That night, a grand piano – let’s call it a UFO – had landed in the illustrious Ibiza club. At its helm: Francesco Tristano, not yet thirty and already a long-distance adventurer in sonic space. Also on board, in the DJ booth, was Carl Craig, controlling Ableton with the help of his Ipad. Carried away by the fervor…
