Concert by the group JEAN PAUL POLETTI ET LE CHOEURS D'HOMMES DE SARTENE at the church of Sainte Lucie in Porto-Vecchio
Style of music: Corsican polyphonies
The Sartène men's choir was founded by Jean-Paul Poletti in 1995.
Made up of 6 men, the group is constantly inventing new musical spaces, classical in form but contemporary in inspiration.
The Choir's dream of inscribing Mediterranean polyphony in the history of classical music is no longer a pipe dream. In the Corsican musical universe, the Choir holds an atypical place, its classically trained singers giving a particular sound to traditional polyphony.
Sound and precision are their credo, and they are tireless workers. The group is constantly questioning itself, enabling it to move forward and make constant progress by exploring new musical forms.
Respect for the audience and for this great lady of music are also the concerns of these singers, who are always striving for greater perfection, not content with the black and white of the score, but trying to bring colour to it.
The group's different repertoires oscillate between the secular and the sacred, trying to convey emotion, an idea of the Corsican soul and the mysteries of the island - in short, what is invisible to the eye.
Since 1995, they have been touring the world and the most important stages (Mexico, China, Korea, the United States, Austria, Belgium, Russia...), trying to convey a part of themselves to the public.
