As a result of the health crisis, the Fête de la Musique will not have the same flavor at all in Rennes on Sunday. For the first time since 1982, no stage will be installed in the streets of the Breton capital "in order to limit public gatherings", specifies the city. Budding musicians will also not be able to take their guitars and percussion out onto the street, knowing that gatherings of more than ten people on the public highway are always prohibited.
Sunday June 21, #Rennes celebrates music !! 🎵🎶 This year no scenes in the city, but online programming, and surprises in the streets 😊 The whole program> https://t.co/trN8OOwjEd #IciRennes pic.twitter.com/1jWR4gaQHc
- metropolerennes (@metropolerennes) June 15, 2020To brighten up the first day of summer, a chariot bike will still wander the streets of the city center in the afternoon and play a musical selection tinged with soul and hip-hop.
Concerts captured in parks and broadcast online
For the rest, everything will happen behind the screens this year. From noon to midnight, the city will thus broadcast on its social networks videos of local artists such as Lisa Camille (pop folk), Barbara Rivage (electro pop), Lowdy Williams (hip-hop) or Blue Cees (electro).
Three surprise concerts given by the groups Le Banquet Céleste (baroque music), Zwitches (tribal folk) and L'Amoureuse (urban pop and rap) in city parks will also be picked up in the afternoon and posted on social networks of the city and the metropolis.
The TEDxRennes event will also celebrate online music on Friday evening with the broadcast of concert extracts and interviews with seven artists on stage during past events, including Emily Loizeau, Joseph d'Anvers and Antoine Zebra.
