THE MUTES

As part of the Trajectoires festival and in partnership with the CCNN, Lithuanian artist Lina Lapelytè will perform her piece THE MUTES at the Frac!

Performed by a selected cast of people that consider themselves ‘tone deaf’ or having ‘no musical ear’, THE MUTES departs from the classical canons that exclude those who sing “out of tune”. Lina Lapelytė questions the notions of harmony and accuracy and, more broadly, conventions and social norms and inclusivity. The lyrics for the songs are taken from the book by Sean Ashton called Living in a Land and the instrumental multichannel sountrack composed with material recorded by Angharad Davies, John Butcher, Rhodri Davies and Lina Lapelytè herself.

A free shuttle is available to you, departing from the Frac in Nantes (21 quai des Antilles):
