Creation and recording residency.
Antoine Chanteloup has always written songs: minimalist, in French, imbued with a slightly shaggy romanticism, peopled with bugs - but he never sang them to anyone.Alessandro Bosetti, a composer and sound artist whose work explores the musicality of voice, language and tongues, has invited them out of their lair. For the occasion, he takes up his soprano saxophone, long put aside.
Both have lived in Marseille for the past ten years. Their friendship was born there - and is now extended by this collaboration.Antoine's diaphanous voice is woven into a sound fabric of sober harmonies, insistent silences and suspended notes. A few chords, crossed by breaths, tensions and bursts of laughter.
Alessandro Bosetti's work is based on the musicality of voice, language and languages. He explores the border between spoken language and music.
Antoine Chanteloup
Songwriter
Antoine Chanteloup, a discreet and solitary songwriter, draws his inspiration from the landscapes of his childhood and the pure writing of Tarjei Vesaas and Federigo Tozzi. His whispered, minimalist songs, in French and sometimes Italian, breathe a shapeless romanticism, a living nature populated by insects, animals and a suspended vegetal reality. His diaphanous, androgynous voice rests delicately on a sound fabric of sober harmony and sustained silences.
In dialogue with this universe, Alessandro Bosetti, composer and sound artist, rediscovers his original instrument, the soprano saxophone, to accompany and interweave with Antoine Chanteloup's guitar and voice a liquid, fragile score, suspended between song and sound matter. Both have lived in Berlin - without ever having met there - and now find themselves in Marseille, where their heterogeneous sound worlds converge and coexist.
