About

Clara Inglese was twenty when she discovered the multi-facetted personality of Ophelia who breathes a special energy into her desire to sing. Today she imagines through a CD, from the musical 19th century, a journey between worlds, questioning Ophelia's madness within the torments and interrogations of our time. Thus was born the last piece, Chant d’exil commissioned from François Emmanuel (for the text) and Benoît Mernier (for the music). This poetic allegory reflects the fluid gap between the boundaries and sings of the tragedy of an errant Ophelia, as though addressing the memory of our deceased human siblings who drowned on the path of exile.
