What could you expect when music creation was inspired by a clown? Icarus 3 is an improvising trio composed of Jeremy Gignoux (violin/viola), Keith Rodger (double bass), and Robin Tufts (drums, percussion). They created their original repertoire in an unusual and experimental way: with the help of the clown. Under guidance from clown performer and educator Jacqueline Russell, they explored their inner clowns, which gave birth to musical compositions and improvisation games that display a joyful and wild creative energy. In a special performance, you can expect a fun show, stories, emotions, and characters are all brought to life through music, movement and theater.
What can you expect from the show?
You will see musicians play music but also move around the stage and be silly. The music has elements of jazz, classical music, traditional music, and lots of improvisation. At times, it will be very exploratory, showcasing unconventional playing techniques, at other times it will be more down to earth. We also have a few games in store.
With ISC on stage will be Jacqueline, who will act as a clown-provocateur/ring leader. As such, she will react to the music they play but also prompt them to change the way we perform, and help everyone connect with you the audience!
