Hélène BRESCHAND

Helene Breschand fait partie de ces musiciens capables d'evoluer a la limite de plusieurs domaines qui vont de la musique contemporaine au Jazz.
Il suffit de lentendre jouer pour se rendre compte quelle vit pleinement l'interpretation et l'improvisation comme deux approches complementaires de la musique.
Co-fondatrice de l'ensemble LABORINTUS, Helene BRESCHAND mene une carriere de soliste et de chambriste, tant a travers le repertoire contemporain et les creations, que l'improvisation et le theatre musical.
She took interest for musical construction that could represent the hinge between the written music and improvisation. Consequently, the notion of temporality and the tactile sense will interfere in her approach of the instrument enriching her relation to the written music.
By putting her at risk, the improvisation enables her to stabilise, to recognise herself and to stenghten herself.
She also plays in solo, duo with Jean-Francois Pauvros, and trio with Sylvain Kassap et Didier Petit .
"Helene Breschand demonstrating her readiness to deconstruct her instrument's identity.if you still regard the harp as an anachronism, just experience the scope and power of Breschand's Le gout du sel". Julian Cowley THE WIRE
