Flauto Di Leto
August 2024 Residency Call
This residency aims to create a multi-sensory artwork by synthesising different art forms. Dance, live visual arts, improvised music and performance will be linked by a contemporary composition co-written specifically for this project. Movement, visual, choreographic and vocal workshops will be constantly linked to the musical creations in an ongoing exchange between artists.
The residency will feature a diverse group of artists with expertise across multiple disciplines, including two instrumentalists, a visual artist, a singer, and a dancer.
The host association, Flauto Di Leto, is dedicated to promoting music and arts, and supporting multidisciplinary projects. In this residency, they aim to expand their reach by including new disciplines. The mission of this project is to engage new audiences with innovative ideas that align with the social context and local community.
The residency will be held in Studio Chroma, Rochechinard, France, which serves as both a reception area and a recording studio.
This projet is supported by CULTURE MOVES EUROPE!
