André Manoukian in Boisseuil
In his show The Notes that love each other, André Manoukian presents a history of music in an original way, through his erudition which he shares with humor.
The title comes from little Wolfgang, who at 3 years old, was looking for “the notes that love each other” on his harpsichord. Nice definition of music, isn't it? Obviously, André Manoukian illustrates his point on the piano…
Boisseuil, Espace du Crouzy, Friday November 22, 9 p.m., €33
Progressive rock: Ange in Limoges
After a few thousand concerts around the world, six gold records, 6 million albums sold, the Grand Prix de l'Académie Charles-Cros in 1976, at 80 years old, Christian Décamps is making his last lap. A pioneer of progressive rock, this living legend continues to amaze, provoke and seduce with his generosity and atypical lyricism. Ange invents what many do not dare, the communicative joy, the audacity to continue exploring the unknown.
Limoges, John-Lennon cultural center, Friday November 22, 8 p.m., €32.50
Ragga: Massilia Sound System in Limoges
Created in 1984, it has been four decades since the Marseille group, herald of social chronicle and unabashed folklore, has been delivering its “good vibes”.
He took to the road to celebrate his longevity as a singer of Jamaican ragga performed in its Provençal version. Indian accents, electro, rock, no sound scares him to mix. With this group, it swings and it dances.
Boisseuil, Espace du Crouzy, Saturday November 23, 8:30 p.m., €32.50
Songs: Calogero in Limoges
Calogero, “Calo” for close friends, comes to sing LOVE, the title of his latest album. Frankly, we won't blame him. It’s needed…
His show, very musical, with big sound, is also very visual, with projections on a giant screen.
The singer does not forget to perform his hits, accompanied by a great team of musicians.
Zénith de Limoges, Saturday November 23, 8 p.m., 29 to 65 euros
Theater: Vincent Dedienne in Limoges
The comedian, columnist and man of the theater presents his solo A gala evening. He plays a gallery of characters: journalist from a 24-hour news channel, histrionic actor, little girl with high potential, etc. These figures reflect our times. The stories he imagined are very funny, sometimes tinged with the charm of nostalgia.
Limoges Opera, Tuesday November 26, 8 p.m., 38 to 44 euros
Humor: Malik Benthala in Limoges
In his third solo performance, New Worldcomedian Malik Benthala combines humor, personal anecdotes and observation of everyday life to paint a picture of our times.
Limoges Opera, Wednesday November 27, 8:30 p.m., €45 and €50
Songs: Patrick Bruel in Limoges
In Limoges, he comes and returns. Besides, isn't his latest album called Again? He is not wrong to come back because, in the porcelain city, apparently, they love him: his concert is already almost sold out.
Zénith de Limoges, Wednesday November 27, 8 p.m. (remaining places €55 and €69)
Poetic pop: Clara Ysé in Limoges

The daughter of the philosopher and psychoanalyst Anne Dufourmantelle and the painter Bruno Dufourmantelle traces her path in music and songs. This has already brought him great success. His title Douce was named best original song at the Victoires de la Musique 2024.
In Oceano Nox, she sings about love, “despite everything”. She also sings about shipwrecks and courage, in French, Spanish and English.

Brazilian Pop: Flavia Coehlo in Boisseuil
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Flavia Coehlo traveled the world before settling in France in 2006. Her music, with Latin inspirations of course, delivers an anthology of very pop songs.
The artist sings sometimes in French and sometimes in Brazilian Portuguese. She sings about love with swaying rhythms and it rocks. A hundred dates throughout France will take her to the Olympia in March 2025. In the meantime, we will listen to her at:
