Totem-Cairn
Totem-Cairn is an international co-production between Ensemble Cairn (FR) and Productions Totem Contemporain. The project will materialize in four commissions of works offered to composers Émilie Girard-Charest (CA), Jesper Nordin (SE), Michael Edwards (UK), Samuel Sighicelli (FR). Three of the performers will be from Ensemble Cairn (clarinet, electric guitar, percussion) and three others from PTC (two Babel tables and a Siren organ). The four works will be premiered on March 23 in Lyon as part of the Biennale des musiques exploratoires, a festival organized by the GRAME.

Totem Électrique  
Five new works have been commissioned for the first half of 2022 as part of the Totem Électrique series. The works will be composed by Émilie Payeur, Stéphane Roy, Myriam Boucher, Diego Bermudez Chamberland and Adam Basanta.

La Belle Humeur 
La Belle Humeur is an international co-production between PTC and the dance company La Zampa (FR). PTC composed the music for this choreographic project. The work will be performed again on February 8, 2022 at the Festival Montpellier Danse and on April 5, 2022 at L'empreinte, Scène nationale Brive-Tulle (FR).
