Lisa Strauss presents Brutal Baroque, her first solo project intended to reveal the brutal and expressive power of her style, while embodying her lively vision of classical music, which breaks down the borders of eras and disciplines. This concept was conceived with David Herman, a multidisciplinary director and curator. He guides the cellist in translating her world into a "global narrative atmosphere," generating original creations and collaborations.

Musically, Brutal Baroque is distinguished by its transgenerational interpretation of the Baroque expressiveness, from its historical roots to its contemporary forms. It brings together rare and radical references from Lisa's repertoire, from the virtuosity of Marin Marais to the avant-garde of Penderecki, and the primal depth of Vasks. It also explores the realms of rock and electronic music through collaborations or iconoclastic compositions (movements based on samples by Régis Campo).

Brutal Baroque transcends the music-album project, becoming a "total" manifesto. Talents from visual arts, fashion, decor, dance, and even culinary arts, drawn from their artistic family, are regularly commissioned for creating visual productions, scenarized shows, and in-situ  performances, immersing audiences in truly cathartic and transformative experiences.
