CRECENDO, 2025 EDITION
The Crescendo show takes place during the weekend arts festival dedicated to young talent. This festival will also host the Ligue d'Improvisation Franco-Colombienne (LIFC).
The festival will take place from February 14 to 16, 2025.
Theme: urban bodies
This year's festival focuses on the theme of urban bodies. Street arts meet performing arts in this dazzling expression of the relationship between the body and the urban environment: how do young people move, interact and express themselves in public spaces?
WHAT'S CRESCENDO?
Crescendo is a multidisciplinary event dedicated to visual art, performing arts and street art, offered by the Conseil jeunesse, in partnership with the CSF, to students of the Conseil scolaire francophone, aged 14 to 18. It gives young people the opportunity to showcase their talents in fields as varied as music, theater, dance, painting, singing, or even more urban arts such as skateboarding, slam, or graffiti.
The aim is to fully immerse yourself in an extraordinary artistic experience: from the audition process to your final act in front of the public at the show, via personalized coaching sessions.
Crescendo highlights
- Artistic workshops: Participants will have access to workshops led by professional artists in various disciplines. You'll learn new techniques, experiment with new forms of expression and develop your creativity.
- Stage performances: At the end of the festival, each participant or group will perform on a large stage, in front of an audience. The performances will be an opportunity to show your progress and share your passion.
- Exchange and collaboration: One of Crescendo's main objectives is to enable talented young people to collaborate and exchange ideas with each other. You'll be able to form groups, collectives or even improvised duos to create hybrid performances (dance + music, theater + slam, graffiti + musical instrument, etc.).
THROWBACK ON 2024 EDITON!
It is with great emotion that we look back on the 2024 edition of LIFC x Crescendo, which thrilled us all weekend long. We laughed, cried, shared beautiful moments together, and created new friendships.
From February 16th to 18th 2024, a total of 63 young people came together to share their talent and their passion for the stage. Whether through dancing, singing, photography, or artistic direction, these participants worked together to offer the audience a unique show.
A huge THANK YOU to all the participants who left a mark on our minds, and who made this a unique and unforgettable event! A special mention to the coaches who accompanied the students in an immersive experience from the beginning of registration to the end of the project, without whom this edition of LIFC x Crescendo would not have been the same.
