From july 13th till august 29th, "Tempo rives", a cycle of ten free concerts in open air, will take place mainly on the banks of the Maine river. At nightfall, the Savatte embankment will host professionnal as well as amateur bands. The rythm will come from diffrent musical currents like jazz or funk and from diffrent countries like Egypt or french Indies. The event will also try to promote local bands at the beginning of every concert.
The Savatte wharfage is a very convenient place for such performances : the public is sat on the lawns of the embankment face to the Angers castle whom the fortifications are illuminated (costly, according to some inhabitants). The only disdvantage could come from the noise of the traffic (and possibly from mosquitos).
The first performance of 2010 demonstrated that the Maine river, thanks to illuminations, boats and water, creates a change of scene for inhabitants at home during the summer. "Tempo rives" could replace soon "Angers l'été", the previous excitement planned by town hall, in the mind of the Angevins.
