  • Dossier Ijin 6
    Certains vous diront que l’imagination est un don, pour d’autres ce sera un art, pour d’autres encore, une forme d’évasion et un préliminaire à toutes formes de création. En pays Bigouden, danseurs et musiciens ont fait de l’imagination une priorité pour orchestrer leur nouveau spectacle : IJIN. Tout en respectant les styles et répertoires issus de leur culture traditionnelle, le Bagad CAP CAVAL et le cercle cel- tique AR VRO VIGOUDENN, deux ensembles à forte identité et aux savoir-faire reconnus se sont unis pour laisser courir leur imagina- tion par-delà les horizons de leur terroir. Au-delà de cette même passion pour la musique et la danse traditionnelles, ils partagent également une même approche de la scène et une vision identique du spectacle, tant dans l’écriture musicale et chorégraphique que dans la création et la reconstitu- tion de costumes. IJIN, c’est aussi l’imaginaire d'une rencontre avec d’autres univers musicaux comme celui du chanteur kabyle Farid Aït Sia- meur ou ceux de Yann Guirec Le Bars et Julien Le Mentec ou en- core celui des percussions de Dominique Molard. De toutes ces sources d’inspiration est né IJIN. Ouvrez gran- des les ailes de votre propre imagination et laissez vous porter… La musique et la danse feront le reste. Bagad Cap Caval « Cap Caval », ancien nom du Pays Bigouden, contrée de l’extrême sud-ouest de la Cor- nouaille, voilà le nom quelque peu sorti des mémoires, que Denis Daniel avait retenu en 1984 pour le bagad qu’il venait de créer sur PLOMEUR.
