Les Electrics sont des tentatives de création d'espaces sonores qui allient le soliste et le dispositif électroacoustique dans une relation particulière. Avec Les Electrics, je cherche à définir cette interactivité idéale, le lien ou le lieu sonore convivial, musical et ludique, à l'image peut-être d'une pensée de musique chambriste qui pourraient relier deux musiciens, ici le soliste et l'ordinat…

Par IGUDESMAN ALEKSEY. Brace yourselves, Beethoven lovers and purists everywhere; here is the famous Fifth Symphony as you never dared to imagine it! In “Beethoven Takes Five”, Aleksey has changed the meter to an audacious 5/4… but that’s just the beginning of his machinations!

Jarrett se dispense de l'emphase conventionnelle des solistes de jazz virtuoses et des phrasés « intelligents ». À la place, il ramène ces chansons à leur essence mélodique et étale a…

All three quartets were long considered lost - it was even said that Dvorák de…
