Experience a film for your ears in the Espace de projection, where oral literature and the pleasure of collective listening are reinvented. Each Musique-Fiction combines an adapted and signed text, an electroacoustic musical creation, and a sonic projection in an immersive loudspeaker system.

On April 14, 1912, at 11:40 pm, the Titanic sank with Giovanni Pastore on board, in charge of cleaning the 3,177 dessert spoons for the first-class passengers. Giovanni had always been the immigrant, the handyman. When he came down from the mountains of Friuli, he finally found himself a "good place" on the Titanic. Under the waves after the shipwreck, in the imagination of writer Patrick Kermann, the ship still tells the same story: the lost land and childhood, the fate of the never-counted third class, the left-behinds of all nations who hoped to reach the promised land of free labor. In this story of great and small disasters, Jérôme Combier's music conjures up a world that is distant and sunken, alive and ghostly.

The Espace de projection, which has the architectural distinction of being built 16 meters below the place Stravinksy, is not accessible to people with reduced mobility.
