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.

Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:
“My philosophy is such that I am not going to vote against the oppressed. I have been oppressed, and so I am always going to have a vote for the oppressed, regardless of whether that oppressed is black or white or yellow or the people of the Middle East, or what. I have that feeling.”
—Septima Clark (1898–1987)
“Irish? In truth I would not want to be anything else. It is a state of mind as well as an actual country. It is being at odds with other nationalities, having quite different philosophy about pleasure, about punishment, about life, and about death. At least it does not leave one pusillanimous.”
—Edna O’Brien (b. c. 1932)
