La Chacana

What do we know about the music of the pre-Hispanic Amerindian cultures and civilisations? What was the music practised by the Spanish at the time of the discovery of the New World? What cross-fertilisation resulted from these unequal exchanges, especially in the 17th and 18th centuries?
These are the questions that form the subject of the concert conceived by Pierre Hamon, an undisputed specialist in pre-Columbian flutes and sound objects, in a marriage of the sounds and rhythms of instruments and songs from the American and European continents. With frenzied rhythms and immemorial melodies, La Chacana explores this sound universe with jubilation and offers you a fascinating journey into the musical roots of the animated film "Pachamama" (nominated for the 2019 Césars) for which Pierre Hamon composed the music.
