Magie et musique improvisées : Jazz Magic

In recent years, magic has taken a new turn. It’s called jazz magic. Just as a jazz musician improvises based on standard themes, the magician draws from his repertoire depending on the interactions that arise in the moment with the audience.%A0

On stage, a magician and a pianist engage in a dialogue through their respective disciplines. The magician works with delicate magic, using a trial-and-error approach to turn mistakes into something positive. The latter draws on a color or an image to invent a unique sequence of chords that evokes an emotion and tells a story.

The magician is Antoine Terrieux, a self-taught juggler who is blazing a trail in new magic, “performance with a twist,” and “wonderful chance.” The pianist is Marek Kastelnik, a member of the duo L’Oiseau Ravage. Together, they challenge circus conventions to create a visual and musical whirlwind.

Both humorous and poetic.
