At a time when fear and withdrawal are building walls in the name of religion and cultural identity around the world, our global village – located within the framework of the twenty-second edition of the Croisée des cultures – is a welcome rediscovery.
Amateurs and professionals of all generations are invited to experience the rich heritage of world music and dance through a wide selection of talented artists and teachers. Throughout this exceptional week, an enormous choice of disciplines allows you to draw on traditions, to expand expressions, rejuvenate creativity and develop ties to humanity.
Through our voices, gestures, drives and rhythms, and smooth and swaying movements, we show that in order to create energy, we have to learn how to spend it. For only those who know how to share are enriched through music and dance.
