Three substantial pieces by Luc Ferrari, with solo works of Brunhild Ferrari.
These two volumes are being released together and simultaneously, as a sign of continuation.
For Luc Ferrari, this is the first full-length CD to come out after the trilogy developed with him Les anecdotiques (2002), a fifteen-part suite, Son Mémorisé (1976-2002) and Didascalies (2007).
What we have here is three substantial pieces: Programme commun pour clavecin et bande magnétique (1972)
performed by Elisabeth Chojnacka, Didascalies 2 (1993) performed by Jean-Philippe Collard-Neven, Claude Berset, and Vincent Royer (in 2009), and another previously unreleased piece that he held dear: Les émois d'Aphrodite (1986-1998), performed by San Francisco's MC Band under his direction.
Released for the first time, the solo works of Brunhild Ferrari: Derivatif (2008), Brumes du reveil (2009), Tranquilles Impatiences (2010) forming a trilogy on reconstruction from a memory that is still quite alive. These works are new bricks in the erection of a liberating oeuvre.
Co-founder of the Groupe de Recherche Musicales in Paris (GRM) with
Pierre Schaeffer in 1958, Luc Ferrari (1929-2005) is a pioneer and a major figure of musique concrète and electroacoustic music, soon to pave his own path of individualistic expressions of minimalist music, musical theater, field recordings, orchestral music and soundtracks.
Brunhild Meyer (born 1937) became Brunhild Meyer-Ferrari after she married with
Luc Ferrari. She has been his closest collaborator for more than forty years.
