Music
Dans l’oubli
A slow-burn choral night.
Aedes and Denis Podalydès present a poignant musical exploration of memory loss and dementia. Through a blend of music and narrative, the performance follows a doctor who, after years of caring for patients, begins to recognize the signs of the disease within himself. The production weaves together works by composers ranging from Brahms to Kaija Saariaho, capturing the emotional stages of the condition—from anxiety and hallucinations to the eventual fading of the self.
