The whole audience of the Antique Theater was carried away during the last edition of the festival by the infectious energy of this Balkans brass band-orchestra who shared the stage with Ibrahim Maalouf. Founded in a Parisian area in 2004 by the drummer-percussionist and ethno-musicologist Sylvain Dupuis, the brass band-orchestra gathers 18 musicians from multiple nationalities : French, Greek, Bulgarian, Turkish, Gypsy of Serbia around the shared will to built bridges between Turkish and Balkan music. Dipping into the Azeris, Kurdish, Syrian-Lebanese and Armenian repertories, his writting offers an interbreeding of tradition and modernity between the eastern and western world … And if sometimes the frontiers are insurmountable walls, we can have confidence in the Haidouti musicians to abolish them with joy.
