1. Train de nuit (Noord 3-683) (1998-99) 21m50s mkcd_029-1.1 | 15733 |
To Pierre Schaeffer
“We have to imagine the first steps of Musique Concrète, in the
studio, during the 40s of the last century, like a strange and disturbing
face to face between a Loud Speaking unique diaphragm and the Ear Head of the
listener. Even though from the beginning, its creators often wanted it to be
heard on a multi-phonic device, I still wonder whether this music
hasn’t lost its original specificity through this practice. As a native
experience, it has tackled and felt, at stake with the focal point as a near
magical instance. By leaning above this well of sounds, it becomes possible
to enjoy a real encounter with the true location of all sounds in the World.
How could we work poetics today with in our hands the simplicity of a sound
that speaks rather than a profusion of techniques? Train de
nuit (Noord 3-683) is played in concert on one loudspeaker and should be
played as so on record.”
—LM
Musique concrète for one loudspeaker composed in 1998-99 at CFMI in Lyon
