Triptych punctuated by J.S. Bach's famous Suites, Nos. 1, 3 and 5.
In the first piece, Jörg Müller defies balance by manipulating a lit candle placed at the end of a pole.
The frail, flickering flame asserts its gentle vitality despite its fragility.
Next, he flies a merry-go-round of suspended tubes. We contemplate them twirling, brushing against each other, living together without ever disturbing this joyful dance.
Finally, it's in the fifth suite, with its deep, intense harmonies, that the encounter reaches its climax.
From now on, it's the musician who's suspended, her fragility as a performer exacerbated by the aerial flights that the juggler instills.

Noémi Boutin
After her early academic studies at the CNSMD in Paris, Noémi Boutin, whose career was destined for the great concertos, took singular paths, passionate about new artistic adventures. She “cellos” alone, in chamber music (Quatuor Béla, Vanessa Wagner, Jeanne Bleuse, Alvise Sinivia...), plays the repertoire as well as today's music (Daniel D'Adamo, Frédéric Pattar, Misato Mochizuki, Aurélien Dumont, Frédéric Aurier, Antoine Arnera, Eve Risser, Oxana Omelchuk...). ) and enjoys working on stage with artists from all disciplines: Jörg Müller, Mathurin Bolze for circus; Pierre Meunier, Vincent Martin for theater; Fantazio, Mayu Sato, Sylvaine Hélary, Elise Caron or Timothée Quost for music; and recently with chef Emmanuel Perrodin. She cultivates a taste for slips and side-steps, and loves to handle words when they become absurd or poetic.
Jörg Müller
Born in Bavaria in 1970, Jörg Müller obtained his diploma in Circus Arts from the CNAC in 1994 (with the congratulations of the jury), from which he graduated with a mobile. He then went on to create C/o and Noustube - (work in a 3-meter-high glass of water); PRE #1 and PRE #2.2 with Jess Curtis (performance between circus, dance and science) and in 2016, Sarabande with Noémi Boutin (around Bach suites for cello).
His latest creative project, Tangled drop, co-written and performed performed with Japanese visual artist Tabaimo, was premiered and performed in May 2022 in Japan and December 2022 in France.
“A gentle show, always on the edge, combining grace and virtuosity.”
“Immense emotion.”
“a show that sways, literally and figuratively, in the luminous space opened up by Bach's Suites”
