On the occasion of the European Heritage Days, the public establishment of Mont Saint-Michel invites the artist Damien Fleau to perform on the splendid viewpoint of Mont Saint-Michel, the Couesnon dam.
Discover its bewitching universe in an exceptional natural setting.
This complete artist, trained pianist but also saxophonist and composer, is above all passionate about the cinematographic world.
Thanks to its powerful music in complete harmony with the venue of the concert, we are transported in the theme of the sea, the rhythmic movement of the sometimes powerful and indomitable waves. Composed around the piano, his music is supported by synth strings and electronic sounds.
His artistic references range from Mozart, Ravel, Wagner, or Ennio Morricone to Nihls Fram, Steve Reich and Philippe Glass. So Damien Fleau likes to go from a music tinged with electronic sounds and analog synthesizers to a much more orchestral music. He has just finished the soundtrack of the series about the singer Soprano «A la vie à la mort».
He also composes for groups such as KAST, a duo with electro pop and FESTEN, a jazz quartet with strong cinematic references.
In 2023 will release his first solo piano album: «Breaking Waves».
Come and enjoy a new look at Mont Saint-Michel in this magnificent space, sublimated by the music of Damien Fleau.

About the location

Baie du Mont Saint-Michel
Route de la caserne, 50170 Beauvoir
  • Manche
  • Normandie
The Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel is classified as a Wetland of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention (on 46,000 ha!). This classification covers the maritime part of the bay but also the polders and tidal marshes.
The bay of Mont-Saint-Michel is a bay located between Brittany (southwest) and Avranchin (at the base of the Norman peninsula of Cotentin, east) at the bottom of the Normanno-Breton Gulf. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979\. The very large tidal range in the region (up to 15 meters) allows a large part of this bay to be discovered at low tide. Two granitic islets are located in the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, Tombelaine and Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy. The area is home to a wide variety of birds and marine calf seals.
