La Colonie de Vacances • BAM • Metz

Show & Culture

La Colonie de Vacances is a unique "quadraphonic sound system" setup that puts the audience at the center of four stages for a distinctive sonic experience. Always exploring new formats – whether through polyrhythms, trances, or original harmonies – La Colonie de Vacances invites you to experience a truly enveloping and multifaceted orchestra. Challenging conventions, the musicians embrace John Cage’s idea that "everyone is in the best place," offering compositions with several possible ways of listening. After thirteen years of extraordinary concerts, La Colonie de Vacances is saying farewell: this is the last chance to see these 18 musicians perform together on stage.
