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 between disc, tape and live audio; confrontation of a fixed form and a moving course. Apart from borrowings or quotations, all the sound materials come from the processing of some piano strings. The long final sequence, announced from the beginning, is obtained by coincidence of chains, themselves the result of a "gestural" work inside the piano. Another improvisation of Texier was proposed the next day. The version presented here is specially designed for tape alone.
