Description

Recording of Francis Dhomont's A Cordes Perdues. This work was premiered on August 11, 1977 at the Festival de Saint Remy de Provence by the double bass player Henri Texier; it is, in fact, at the origin of a mixed music. Inspired by Henri Texier's album, Amir, it borrows materials, groups and objects from this record and sets out to return to a electroacoustic reflection. During the concert Texier improvised on the band which he had only acquainted me with a few hours before: reception and / or incentive ranges for the instrumentalist; three-dimensional play between disk, tape and live; confrontation of a fixed form and a moving course. Apart from the borrowings from the record or the quotations, all the sound materials come from the treatment of a few piano strings. The long final sequence, announced at the start, is obtained by the coincidence of chains, themselves the result of gestural work inside the piano. This version is specially composed for tape only.
