French harpist Ange Halliwell performs at ALICE on 13 September 2026 in an evening that blurs the lines between concert, séance, and experimental performance art. Expect hypnotic harp arpeggios layered with hazy electronics, moving between fragility and intensity.
Raised in the southwest French countryside, Halliwell began playing the harp at twelve but transforms the instrument far beyond its classical or traditional role. Strings become percussive patterns and blurred drones; compositions unfold like dreams rather than linear narratives, evoking humid forests, abandoned chapels, and fading daylight. The music radiates gothic romanticism, rural mysticism, and bodily transformation — fragile melodies dissolving into ghostly repetitions, whispered confessions giving way to explosive screams.
In a short time Halliwell has become a distinctive voice on the experimental scene, with collaborations including Sarahsson and Malibou. The performance promises a strange, physical, and deeply immersive universe.
