Soizic Lebrat is a cellist from Nantes who has been focusing on composition, research, and improvisation for several years. In Pensée à l’instant dite, Lebrat gives voice to the thoughts that are never put into words. Her work revolves around the vibratory tension of the low string, in a spellbinding concert. An immersive performance that goes beyond the traditional concert setting, this new creation connects the physical and emotional experiences of music in a shared sensory experience
