le Bilbe du Manager

Considered to be one of the greatest composers of the Spanish Golden Age, Francisco Guerrero (1528-1599) is also the author of a travel account published for the first time in 1590. By creating a dialogue between Guerrero’s incredible pieces and music from the Near East, Le Banquet du Roy has recreated the composer’s itinerary and accompanies us on a trip full of emotion and fervour.

What has the power to unite three generations around the same pleasure? Cartoon music! It's universal, from age 7 to 107, and that's what motivates Fred Pallem and his big-band of twelve musicians to work on a second opus: inventorizing melodies from different visual repertoires, without preconceptions. Finding nuggets, reawakening forgotten themes, reinvigorating the obvious.
