Performed by
Musiques Nouvelles, conducted by
Jean-Paul Dessy, Jean-Luc Fafchamps's eighth release, a kind of compilation of unreleased or rare pieces covering nearly three decades, is undoubtedly the best introduction to his work.
Five essential pieces that count in the evolution of the composer's writing. Post-spectral works that definitively position Fafchamps as one of the important European composers. And it also weaves subtle links between him and Jean-Paul Dessy, him and Musiques Nouvelles, once created by
Henri Pousseur.
Member of the Ensemble Ictus, Jean-Luc Fafchamps (born 1960 in Brussels) participated in numerous projects, both as a concert pianist (premieres of works by Lindberg, Reich, Aperghis, Mernier, Leroux, Harada, Francesconi , Levinas…) but also in multi-disciplinary performances, particularly accompanying dance (multiple performances with Rosas / Anne-Teresa de Keersmaeker) and theater.
