In your seats, get ready, and get involved!

Assuming the lead role for an evening and learning three new languages at the same time – that sounds like an incredible promise, which up to now has been fulfilled in every performance of Three imaginary languages, the Concerto for Audience and Orchestra by Italian composer Nicola Campgrande. Campogrande, fascinated by the history of fictional languages, invents no less than three new modes of expression for his concerto (using also candies and kazoos). The concertgoer can learn them right before the performance in order to be ready to become the hero of the upcoming presentation. This appeals to all participants and leaves behind a positive memory of the concert.

 

À vos marques, prêts, participez !

Endosser le premier rôle, le temps d’un soir, tout en apprenant trois nouvelles langues – cela sonne comme une vaine promesse, qui a néanmoins été tenue à chaque représentation de « Trois langages imaginaires », le « Concert pour public et orchestre » du compositeur italien Nicola Campogrande. Campogrande, fasciné par l’histoire des langues fictives, invente ici pas moins de trois nouveaux modes d’expression (en utlilisant aussi des bonbons et des kazoos). Les auditeurs qui assistent au concert peuvent en apprendre la syntaxe, juste avant la représentation – et devenir, ainsi préparés, les héros de la soirée. Une initiative qui ne manque pas d’enthousiasmer les participants, qui emportent un excellent souvenir de l’événement.

 

Pronti, partenza, partecipate!

Siate protagonisti, per una sera, imparando tre nuove lingue. Benché possa sembrare una promessa esagerata, è ciò che è finora avvenuto ad ogni esecuzione di «Tre linguaggi immaginari», il «Concerto per pubblico e orchestra» del compositore italiano Nicola Campogrande. Affascinato dalla storia delle lingue fittizie, Campogrande ha infatti inventato per il suo brano tre nuovi linguaggi sonori (usando anche caramelle e kazoo). Il pubblico che assiste al concerto ne impara la sintassi, durante una prova prevista subito prima dell’esecuzione, e, così preparato, diventa il vero protagonista della serata. Non può stupire che i partecipanti rispondano entusiasti e ritornino a casa con un meraviglioso ricordo di questa esperienza.
