From her childhood as a young actress, Lucile Boulanger has retained the pleasure of shaping speech and phrasing emotions. She discovered the viola da gamba at the age of 5, and has explored its many facets ever since: from intimate solo performances to orchestral productions (Ensemble Pygmalion), chamber music and consort work (Les Musiciens de St Julien, Ricercar Consort, etc.).
A much sought-after soloist in France and abroad, she has expanded her instrument’s repertoire with daring collaborations (electro music, contemporary creations, theater, dance) and a taste for transcription. Her brilliant career was crowned in 2025 with a Victoire de la Musique award.

Rapper
Lémofil grew up among the silent trees and legends of his village. He left for Paris to share his stories, and his writing blends the imagination of classical poetry with the energy of French rappers such as Gaël Faye, Diam’s, and Georgio.
With his song Pétrole, the 25-year-old singer has made a name for himself with his poetic power, which brings a fresh and intimate perspective on the ecological challenges ahead. Lémofil has a deep, new, urgent voice that moves his audience with lyrics of raw sincerity.
