		Longtemps je me suis couché tard Sarath Amarasingam : dance Haim Isaacs : voice and music A meeting between the Sri Lankan dancer Sarath Amarasingam and the Israeli singer Haim Isaacs. Sarath has studied traditional Indian as well as contemporary dance and hip-hop. Haim has worked with extended vocal ranges as well as composing music to Hebrew texts. The themes touched upon in their work deal with rites of passage in a man's life. The performance has been fimed. We have a 2, 25 and 50 minute versions at the disposal of programmers. - Friday March, 29 2013, 19h Maison du Théâtre et de la Danse 75/81, avenue de la Marne 93800 Épinay-sur-Seine Click here to see teaser

Using conventional instruments (piano, accordion, double bass, flutes) as well as objets sonores (metal sheets, typewriter, cooking ustensils), there is also a strong theatrical aspect (masks, lighting, costumes).

		The Hole in the Wall things Written and unwritten. Izidor Leitinger : trumpet, piano, objets sonores, percussion and voice Haim Isaacs : voice and piano This concert, based on Haim Isaacs's compositions navigates between the composed and the improvised, between conventional instruments (piano, trumpet) and objets sonores (water, plastic, sea shell, broom). Though it is a concert, the visual aspect is very pronounced. Click here to see an extract
