Voyager
66 = a trip - Route 66 = romantic reference - 66 streets, New York City
- Voyager's trip - space probe - Sounds out from the Solar system
- Sounds of a 1977's planet Earth, inside the probe, now about 20
billion km from Earth - 37 years ago - a cabalistic number! Also a trip inside each one of us - The concert includes the sounds of the audience - It is a party! It is a celebration! Like life. - Your sound - voice, movements, words, silence, glasses... everything - Inside outside - Starting when you arrive, ending when you go to sleep - in another dimension - What reminds me Suzuki when he said: "The right art is purposeless, aimless!". - In this way, Voyager 66 has no explanation - It simply is emanuelpimenta.net/voyager66 |

Jacques Diennet (Marseille) |
Wednesday 17 |
Le Pic Saint Loup - Jacques Diennet: composition, MIDI keyboard; Joe McPhee: saxophone, pocket trumpet; Richard Dubelski: percussion & voice; René Bottlang: piano; Suzanne Joubert: text; Julie Demaison: production / distribution; it does not apply here a descriptive music, but the re-drawing of the image and imagination of the first emotional charge, catalyzing a place, harmonies and melodic undulations that load causes, its faults and escarpments - as a relief of mind; playing stretching, long sequences, also built on an adversarial principle (a dialogue ) between the abrupt tone, almost harsh percussive instruments (piano, percussion), their connotation "primitive", the saxophone and the most sophisticated digital technology instruments - Pic Saint Loup tries slipping spatio -temporal and thus blurs confused elements of the universe, water, earth, and bring the viewer to live a contemplative experience Production - Ubris Studio, with the support of Marseille City; Region PACA; General Council of Bouches-du-Rhône |
