Storyline: Music of imaginary beings is a performance created by the musicians. In a concert-like situation, they interact with all the machinery that is on stage: light, sound, instruments and scenography. The public attends a musical theatre whose main character is not on stage: Borges, blind; but one can imagine Borges, seating on a chair at the centre of his chaotic universe and can hear his voice, distorted while reading his poems.
Music of imaginary beings is inspired by this great Argentinian author on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of his death (14 juin 1986, Genève).
