Stage concept
“” For us, the choice of the Malacam stadium is obvious since our first outdoor concert in 1998 was in this place. And that is important to us to come back to it for a touch of nostalgia ”, He advances during a press conference at the Soarano station yesterday, by chaining that the titles will be those whom the public likes but also some titles that we will choose. “” For this time, there will be no new songs because we want the spectators to participate entirely in the show, and will sing from the start to the end with us, without giving them time to stay amazed or simply contemplate us If we sing new titles.On the technical side, the band puts the small dishes in the big ones because, in addition to the sound system of the organizer, Mi’ritsoka Production will lend a hand to Be Mozika. Likewise, four generators will be made available in terms of energy. According to Tiana Rainitelo, percussionist of the group, ” Zara Revy is a way of educating hearing, sight and humans with the culture of excellence. We want to offer and if not to accustom the Malagasy public to shows to standards, which leads us to do things as it should, on all levels. “For this show, the fine team will have Samoela on the frontman armed with her guitar, Roger and Manou on guitars, Rainitelo and Mamie aux percussions, Zix à la Basse, Miary on the keyboard, bibs with wind instruments including the Sodina, the flute And the saxophone and Cinthia at the microphone.
