Art of Metal

Edit






In counterpoint to the exhibition at the Philharmonie de Paris devoted to heavy metal and the culture of this musical genre, the Ensemble intercontemporain explores what this attitude " says" to today's composers. Heavy metal inspires the young Bastien David to create a wild (and augmented) riff for an instrument not often associated with this musical genre—the cello—accompanied for the occasion by a drum kit. Art of Metal III is the third part of Yann Robin's series on the metal contrabass clarinet, invented and played by Alain Billard. "Metal" is both the material from which the instrument (and its mouthpiece) is made, and the source of inspiration for his saturated playing, multiplied by IRCAM electronics and the ensemble. Finally, Scandinavia is a hotbed of heavy metal, as demonstrated by the exceptional work of Icelandic composer and double bassist Bára Gísladóttir.
