" – Peu importe d’où l’on vient. Il n’y a pas de tonique. Le thème et son développement ne sont qu’un mirage…
Il y a une musique toujours inattendue.
– Et les dissonances ?

Jaume Cabré - "Voyage d'hiver" - 2014

”La terre, il se pourrait bien après tout que ce soit une espèce
de merveilleux petit appareil enregistreur, plaçé là par on ne sait qui,
pour capter tous les bruits qui circulent mystérieusement dans l’Univers.”
Pierre Reverdy - ”En vrac” - 1929

”J’entends tous les bruits de la terre grâce à mes oreilles et mes nerfs de cristal
dans lesquels circulent le feu du ciel et celui des volcans.”
Michel Leiris - ”Le point cardinal” - 1927

////  La langue de l'Ophiolite
"... drones that come from a committed study of duration, harmonic thermodynamics - when they play it is like a microtonal maelstrom ... ... with a 360° sight and audition, where the blind spots of the optic or sonic nerves are the serpentine vector of ecstatic... "


 
 

A meeting in between Yann Gourdon et Filipe Felizardo, and their music to listen to.

////  Processions


The french cello player Stéphane Clor’s work is a perpetual round-trip between music explorations and art experiments.
