Anatomie SoNore, 2021

Emmanuelle Huynh, dancer-choreographer, Christophe Havard,, composer and Fabrice Arnaud-Crémon, clarinettist, perform and capture sounds on the former "Grand Marais" of Saint-Nazaire, transformed after the war into a space for relaxation and sports activities .

This work is a continuation of both the territorial exploration carried out since 2016, which had given rise to a phonographic laboratory in partnership with the Canada Research Chair - Sound Dramaturgy in Theater in 2018, before culminating in December 2019 in the creation of a sensitive portrait of Saint-Nazaire, We come from too far to forget who we are and of a 2015 creation by the Havard/Arnaud-Crémon duo, "Code name: Villa B" whose musical writing was intimately linked to sound recordings made inside a mysterious Saint-Nazaire bunker "La villa B".

A first meeting of the three artists took place inside La Soucoupe, a sports hall with futuristic architecture built after the war on the old “great marshes” of Saint-Nazaire, backfilled with the debris of an almost completely destroyed city. For two days, the artists both interpreted a composition created for the occasion and improvised with space and sports references. At a distance or in hand-to-hand games, the sound, musical and choreographic movements were captured by a dynamic sound recording, thus wanting to hear the touch of a gesture that is both sensitive and athletic.
