Concertagenda L'Antidote

Can beauty save the world? That is the challenge of L'Antidote, three top musicians from different regions who united in the ominous early days of a global pandemic. Lebanese/French pianist Rami Khalifé, Albanian cellist Redi Hasa and Iranian/French percussionist Bijan Chemirani together form a powerful musical gesture against division, emptiness and rigidity. Their shared experiences with Ludovico Einaudi, Sting, Robert Plant and famous orchestras are distilled by the trio into a sound which hangs somewhere between improvisation, meditative mysticism and electronic trance. Their music is a poetic dialogue between Mediterranean, Middle-Eastern and Balkan traditions. Intimate, hypnotic and unexpectedly liberating. Music as meeting place. As breath. As an antidote.
