"Cosmogonia": an immersive experience by Yom
What happens when music is no longer offered as a concert, but as an experience to go through? When it is not just listened to, but inhabited?
Théâtre de la Concorde (Paris 8th)
About
With Cosmogonia, Yom offers an immersive performance bordering on a concert, an installation, and a ritual. Conceived as a physical and mental journey, this solo creation invites the audience to enter a sensitive space where sound becomes matter, breath, and vibration.
The result of fifteen years of research and a long-term technical obsession, Cosmogonia marks a turning point in Yom's career. Alone on stage, without any additional instruments, he takes on a dizzying challenge: to create an uninterrupted flow of notes from his clarinet alone. Thanks to circular breathing, the rapid execution of arpeggios, and the spatialization of sound and effects pedals activated live by the artist, phantom chords appear, sometimes giving the feeling that he is not alone on stage.
Here, it is not about following a narrative, but about letting oneself be moved by states, intensities, and shifting soundscapes. The sound circulates between bodies, transforms the perception of time, and opens up a rare, almost meditative space for listening.
Far from a traditional stage show, Cosmogonia proposes another way of being together: more intimate, more attentive, more sensory. An immersive and beneficial experience, conceived as a moment of collective musical meditation.
As an associate artist at the Théâtre de la Concorde since the 2025-2026 season, Yom unveils his first solo piece here, created after a residency at the theater. A radical artistic gesture, driven by absolute confidence in the possibilities of his instrument and in the power of sound as a sensitive experience. This intimate form will be presented at the Studio Cardin in October, before an expanded version in the Joséphine Baker hall in November, as part of our theme devoted to trust.

About
A clarinetist and composer with an eclectic career, Yom traverses styles from klezmer to rock, from electronic to sacred music, with the same exacting standard: to seek, through sound, access to the spiritual, to the essential. His playing, recognizable among a thousand, blends rigor and freedom, tradition and modernity.

By weaving continuous breath and intricate live effects, the artist conjures ghost-like harmonies that envelop the entire space. It is a deeply immersive ritual designed for those looking to lose track of time in a sea of pure resonance.
