Hapsis

Description: "Hapsis" is a cello room in its own right. This one indeed is present not only on stage, but also through transformations carried out using digital means, exclusive material of the band. These transformations are not radical, it was not for me, thanks to virtuoso manipulations to "reinvent" the cello, but on the contrary to constantly keep the imprint by the development of some of its characteristics. No unheard sounds, but the meeting between a cello and his double and a constant concern for b… more

Streichquartett No. 11

Description: This composition is based on a magic square, which is on a copper engraving by Albrecht Dürer, entitled "Melencolia I" (dated 1514) The figures 17 and 34, resulting from the different additions, represent in this magic square as well as in my composition of the structural values. Numbers penetrate the composition in multiple ways, take the foreground to disappear to become elusive, rise to the surface to fall back into the vagueness. But it is still the magic square of Albrecht Dürer, without o… more

Storm Song

Description: Storm-song, as the title suggests, is concerned with two very different forms of musical material: 'storm' - tempestuous, dramatic and sometimes violent music with a strong sense of forward movement and goal orientation; and 'song' - a more lyrical, melodic aspect suggesting stasis and rest. These two ideas are developed through opposing musical means. For example, 'storm' is characterised in the tape part mainly by noise-based sounds, whereas 'song' uses more pitched material. Similarly, in … more

Voie Lactée

Description: Voie Lactee is a work in four movements (A ? 3:06, B ? 5:53, C ? 9:00, D ? 11:05) meant to depict the fast-changing galactic multitudes of the Milky Way in tandem with reflections on the drama of the human condition. The work owes its title to a recurring stanza in G. Apollinaire?s Chanson du Mal Aime (1904): Voie lactée, ô soeur lumineuse Des blancs ruisseaux du Chanaan Et des corps blancs des amoureuses Nageurs morts suivrons-nous d'ahan Ton cours ver d'autres nébuleuses. … more

Caught in an Octogon of Unaccustomed Light

Description: This composition continues the development of a musical language based on the color of unusual acoustic sounds. In this case the predominant use of inharmonic timbres (metal, multiphonics and a non-octave tuning system), creates the language that our musical traditions has for the most part ignored. A series of sections or "windows" based on specific sound sources has the listener "caught" by their interactions. Overall structural integrity is maintained by the reuse of similar gestures, colors… more

Anaconda

Description: "Anaconda" could be labelled as a "naturalistic" work. Conceptually, the piece relies on the imagery provoked by the sound, and on the immediacy of the sound world and the integration of the flute part in terms of sound texture and musical material. Broadly, this work can be divided in three parts: 1) The very beginning represents the location : jungle, unfamiliar, exotic, moist, exuberant and very importantly, claustrophobic ( this last is maintained throughout the piece). It is here that we… more

Cuenca

Description: The result of a long stay in the city of Cuenca during the summer of 1985 and a reflection of various experiences. In the first place, the influence of the city and its impressive landscape is undeniable. In addition, I wanted to pay a cryptic tribute to the writer Villiers de L'Isle-Adam: his short story The secret of ancient music, which is part of his cruel tales, awakened in me the fascination for this unusual an instrument of the nineteenth century called "Chinese hat", fascination that le… more

À cordes perdues

Description: Recording of Francis Dhomont's À cordes perdues. This work was premiered on August 11, 1977 at the Saint Rémy de Provence Festival by bassist Henri Texier; it is, in fact, at the origin of a mixed music. Inspired by the album "AMIR" by Henri Texier (Eurodisc 913002), it borrows materials, groups, and objects, and proposes to send back an "electroacoustic reflection". During the concert, H. Texier improvised on the tape: reception and/or incentive for the instrumentalist; three-dimensional game … more
