Traversées proposes pedagogical concerts for teenagers, in high schools and concert halls alike. Flautist Myriam Darmé and harpist Maia Darmé have designed a special performance program to that purpose. They bring over 35 instruments with them, including 19 traditional flutes from different continents, 8 Western concert flutes (from bass to piccolo and period instruments) and 5 recorders (from bass to sopranino). As for harps, students are given a chance to discover a concert grand pedal harp, an electric harp, a bardic harp from Ireland, an arpa llanera from Latin America and a kamele n’goni from Africa.
The duo performs a wide range of short pieces from folk melodies to classical works, movie soundtracks and songs — all special arrangements created by Traversées. In between pieces, the musicians offer entertaining and informative presentations and take questions from the audience.
Pedagogical shows and presentations are also possible with other instruments. Do not hesitate to contact us for further information.
