Aja

To mark the Monte le Son - Ô féminins festival and continuing its musical programming, the Médiathèque Hélène Berr welcomes Aja, the solo project of Clémence Quélennec, former member of the band La Femme.

Aja offers atmospheric music woven from ethereal vocals, dreamlike textures, and epic melodies. Through her harp and synths, the Breton artist's sound evokes an enveloping journey across enchanting soundscapes that are both intimate and expansive.

com/ Saturday, December 5, 2026 starting at 6:00 PM | Free admission About Aja Following a creative hiatus in Morocco dedicated to sound experimentation, she released her debut EP Solitaire in 2019, soon followed by Ajasphère Vol.

I, a compilation of ambient tracks published over the moon cycles. Back in France, she toured on stage with Jacques and also explored the harp with Le Radeau Consort.

Winner of a residency at the Villa Médicis in 2024, she developed an imaginary audiovisual herbarium there before unveiling her new album Ajasphère Vol. II, presented in a sold-out Boule Noire.

Her latest EP Variations sur Absolune was born spontaneously in the studio when Piezanowski played the theme of Absolune on the guitar, subsequently giving rise to seven unique reinterpretations of this track by various musicians, including Sébastien Forrester, Variéras, and Mami Konishi.

Aja's creative process stems from her encounters and experimentations; currently hard at work on her upcoming album, she lets herself be guided by opportunities and collaborations, much like this latest EP.

Aja will release a new EP in 2026 in collaboration with Japanese artist Mami Konishi.
