Debout dans les cordages
Based on Cahier d’un retour au pays natal, by Aimé Césaire
2017.01.20
As a love song for the West Indies as well as a cry of indignation against the abjection of colonialism, Cahier d’un retour au pays natal, written by Aimé Césaire in 1939, lay down the (vibrant) foundations of the concept of negritude. With Debout dans les cordages, the lively trio formed by Serge Teyssot-Gay (electric guitar), Cyril Bilbeaud (drums) and Marc Nammour (voice) proposes a strong scenic transposition of this primordial text, reproducing all of its strike force on freedom.
