May 2016 inspire you to commit to a better world.May it bring you wonderful encounters, countless discoveries, joy, andstars inthe sky and in your eyes!
The start of the year is also an opportunity to set the tone for the months ahead.
So we are very proud to announce what we have been working on behind the scenes for several months...the sequel to Lyra!
In 2016 and 2017, our wonderful team will come together again withgreat ambitions. You probably remember Pierre Droual and Antoine Péran (our Breton violinist and flutist), Parveen Sabrina Khan and Ilyas Raphaël Khan (our Indian singer and tabla player), and Achref Chargui and Youssef Ben Dhifallah (our Tunisian oudist and flutist)? Perhaps you even remember Simon Guyomard, who made ourvideo? Joining this lovely little troupe are illustrator and visual artist Héloïse Robin, known asIzou, and musician and sound engineer Jean-Marie Nivaigne.Welcome to them!
Together, we will travelto France, Tunisia, and Indiatomeet lots of children, butalso to record analbum, giveconcerts, publish amusical book for children, and even shoot adocumentary. So, we have a wonderful program ahead of us!
And since we don't like to do things by halves, we will be welcomed for the first phase of the project attheexceptionalChâteau de la Roche Jagu fromJune 20 to 26, 2016. We will even give a concert there, to which you are of course invited! We're pretty proud, and above all, we can't wait to meet and work with the château team, who seem to be just as enthusiastic as we are.
And that's not all, because 2016 marks thereturn of Konstelacio to schools. Starting next week, there will be workshops introducing young children to cultural diversity at Potes et Potiron, the daycare center and parent-childcare assistant center in Sud Goëlo in the Côtes d'Armor region. New year, new challenges!
Then, in early February, Konstelacio will set offto discover Egypt, where it will spend two weeks raising awareness among primary school students at the Lycée Français du Caire with workshops based on our booklets.
We hope that the arrival of 2016 makes you as excited as we are.We will be sure to keep you informedof future events via our newsletter, ourwebsite (which is due to be redesigned soon), and ourFacebook/Twitter pages.The good surprises are far from over, so stay tuned!
