1983 - the beginning of the extraordinary musical adventure of five talented and creative keyboard percussionists - the Percussions Claviers de Lyon. A unique quintet that has been producing an innovative new repertoire for their instruments for over 25 years. Marimbas, vibraphones, xylophones and five brilliant musicians, constantly striving for musical excellence, reaching out to their audiences with original performances of pieces from our musical heritage, multidisciplinary shows as well as works by contemporary composers.
The result - an eclectic repertoire of transcriptions and new works composed especially for the group. From Lyon, France to Shanghai, from continent to continent, the Percussions Claviers de Lyon are surprising audiences with their spirited rhythms and subtle melodies, with their interpretations of Debussy, Ravel, and Bernstein as well as exciting new pieces for percussion. This is a musical performance that is perpetually unfolding, for the pleasure of all.
The Percussions Claviers de Lyon are funded by the Ministry of Culture through the DRAC Rhône-Alpes, the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes Region and by the City of Lyon. The ensemble is supported by SPEDIDAM, SACEM and by his Club of sponsors.
