Julie Campiche‘s artistic language is an ongoing process that combines her reflections on the world with musical innovation. A pioneer of the jazz harp, she develops a unique style through the exploration of improvisation, classical and electronic music, for a rich sound that flirts with the experimental. She has a very personal technique and her own musical language. She introduced her harp into the world of jazz and contemporary music in a very organic way.
In her new solo creation, Julie Campiche, with her harp, effects and vocals, pays a tribute to women.
« I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman ». This quote by Virginia Woolf is the sarting point of Julie Campiche’s new solo project.
Each piece tells through music the story of a woman, wether from yesteryear or today, from here or from there, famous or not.
Led by a strong feeling of sorority she speeks for the silenced, the understated, the anonymized and yet so powerful voices.
For this show Julie Campiche associates with stage designer Sophie Le Meillour to enrich the exeprience with scenography and video mapping.
The creation will take place on March 8th 2024 – on the International Women Rights Day – during the Cultural Season in Vernier (Geneva, Switzerland).
Also an album is due to early 2025.
