Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui's "Puz/zle"

Soundtrack performed for the choreography "Puz/zle", choreographed by Belgian choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui. After the premiere in July 2012 in Festival d'Avignon (South France), "Puz/zle" toured around Europe, the Middle East and South America.
An intriguing interaction across stylistic borders. The incredible voices of the Corsican group of singers A Filetta and Lebanese singer Fadia Tomb El-Hage come together in an organical way. Added to this are the chanting, flute-playing and taiko drumming by Japanese musician Kazunari Abe and the electronical music by Polish composer Olga Wojciechowska.
