ABOUT THE COMPANY 

The Company of Humanophones was born in 2013 with the propose to facilitate human and artistic encounters around the music and body expression. An imperious desire to return to the essentials: the  body, the voice…

The Humanophones refers to themselves as “anatomical concert performers. Therefore, there’s a transversality of disciplines in their work. Always navigating between de dance, the physical theater and  their bodies used as music instruments.

Today, through their original music, they invite and challenge their audience to appreciate the  possibilities of the human body and consider its strength and sensitivity. Whilst they explore the different  levels of the social interaction, bringing out situations in a poetic way through humorous characters.

The company has created and produced its first show “Corpus” in 2014 which has been played more  than 120 times internationally. They released their first album in 2017 under the label “Socadisc” which  won the prize SACEM from self-production in 2016.

“Corpus” brings together five artists with a strong expressiveness and of a remarkable complicity, giving  a space for the public to question the distance that contemporary man creates with his own body.

This first show has brought to the company the recognition from body music artists around the globe (Stomp, Keith Terry, founder of the International Body Music Festival in Oakland, Barbatuques, etc.).

2019 is the year when their show “I want you Bach” comes out, as a special piece for the Festival Passe  ton Bach d’abord, through which they explore the body music possibilities around the universe of Bach’s  music.

The group is currently working on two new shows: “Antropus” and “The Hedgehog’s Dilemma”.

However, is the project of The Human Orchestra that regularly brings together all the Humanophones  in one orchestral dimension for the main propose of recording video clips with special arrangements.
