The Philosophy
Started in 1979 by Jean-Louis Brossard and Béatrice Macé, The Trans has been the place to discover new music and unknown sounds, a musical trip where people discover an artistic melting pot from all around the world. Right from the first editions, before the word ‘festival’ was attached to the event, the artistic bias of the line up was towards originality and the emergence of new artistic forms. Since 1979, Trans has shown the will to capture the musical zeitgeist and to maintain with it a relation of curiosity and direct impregnation.
The philosophy behind the festival is to help people discover new music styles, artists that are little-known or even totally unknown, but that will be the future of musical expressions thanks to their original and innovative nature.
