In collaborating with artists from various disciplines, Florentin Ginot opens his instrument’s frontier to create projects between classical and electronic music. For this, he investigates two music giants: Biber and Bach, giving a new vision to this repertoire. After many rich exchanges with two young composers, Fátima Fonte (Portugal) and Patrik Oláh (Hungary), Florentin Ginot relies on a workshop on the place of the double bass in today’s musical writing. The workshop is led as part of the European project EFFEA on the emergence of young artists. And it is in collaboration with the Cziffra Festival in Hungary and Estoril Lisboa Festival in Portugal.
