In unRAVELed, we watch Ravel as a child growing up in the home of his father, an engineer and inventor. The many radar works that little Maurice is shown seem to open the door to his own imagination. Four musicians move in a kaleidoscopic setting. Tiny spotlights illuminate instruments and machines, turning them into magical shadows. We hear machines producing sound and, of course, the wonderful music of the master himself. Step by step, Ravel's creative world unravels and you may even become one of his cats.
After the success of Berberio (2016), chamber music ensemble Revue Blanche and Zonzo Compagnie are teaming up again. This time with a focus on an iconic composer: Maurice Ravel with music arranged by Frederik Neyrinck. WIThWIT will provide the stage design and, as with THELONIOUS (2019), it will be directed by Benjamin Vandewalle.
