Si George m’était conté

Si George m’était conté is shaped by Michèle and Myriam, a close-knit duo combining piano, song and texts inspired by George Sand’s own words. Romantic and lively music alternates with nostalgic or whimsical songs, creating changes of tone that suit the writer’s complex personality. Intimate anecdotes give the theatrical journey a human scale, while the spoken material keeps Sand’s voice and ideas close to the performance. The piano is not merely accompaniment; it helps move between reflection, humour and emotional intensity. Presented in Sancerre, the work connects a broad literary reputation with the immediacy of two performers sharing a stage. The portrait that emerges is affectionate without becoming static, using music and theatre to suggest a woman whose passions, independence and imagination still invite fresh interpretation.
