From an intimate and hypnotic Ravel to a collective trance

Les Apaches affirm their desire to surprise and amaze the public through musical and interdisciplinary creation in all its forms. Conceived for the 150th anniversary of Maurice Ravel's birth, the Rave-L Party will progressively transform the concert hall into a vast industrial complex, then into an electro club.

A tribute to the factory that inspired Boléro, first marked by the rhythmic cadence and constrained bodies of assembly line work, then silenced by machines, it is reborn to the electronic rhythms of a new generation that finds liberation in music. We invite you to join their collective celebration.

Far from the black and white clichés that depict a classic Ravel in a suit, it is the innovative and eternally youthful Ravel we will celebrate. The one who knew no limits, exploring all styles to create new music, and who continues to inspire all musical horizons today.

From the rediscovery of a 1929 jazz bolero to the creation of an electro bolero, via a remixed suite of dances from L'Enfant et les Sortilèges, today's Les Apaches dare to explore everything.

Musicians, conductor, DJ, composers, VJ and dancer will reveal to the public the spirit of the most audacious composer of the 20th century, whose watchword is freedom!
