Théatre des arcades de Buc - SEUL EN SCÈNE André Manoukian

Cultural

A history of music as you've never heard it before

You'll never listen to Sheila in the same way again!

Did you know that the first LP was invented in an Egyptian pyramid? Why do girls go crazy for singers with high voices?
Is the expression ‘as loud as a tenor’ justified by the laws of acoustics? How did Robespierre's execution trigger the birth of jazz?
André Manoukian, alone at the piano, provides humorous answers to these fundamental questions. He reveals the secrets of the great composers, and shows us how to express our feelings through music.
Through his journey of love strewn with muses, mermaids and disasters, summoning in turn Pythagoras or Claude François, he tells his own story through the history of music.
