Sons Dessus Dessous #18 - Musical Time

Content:
<p><span>In February 1978, an experiment took place at IRCAM. Pierre Boulez selected five works: <em>Chamber Concerto</em> by Gy&ouml;rgy Ligeti, <em>Dialogue of the Wind and the Sea</em> by Claude Debussy, <em>Modes de valeur et d&rsquo;intensit&eacute;</em> by Olivier Messiaen, his own work <em>&Eacute;clat</em>, and <em>A Mirror on Which to Dwell</em> by Elliott Carter. </span></p> <p><span>He analyzed these 5 works in public, picking out specific passages and fragments, or bits of isolated speech with the assistance of the musicians from the Ensemble intercontemporain. Each of these public analysis sessions was followed by a debate with a smaller number of people including Roland Barthes, Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, and the IRCAM team. The &ldquo;experiment&rdquo; imagined like a workshop was called Le temps musical. It was supposed to end with a wrap-up session during which the debates made up a sort of sketch, the preparation. </span></p> <p><span>Here you can watch the final session (in French) held on February 23, 1978 at the Centre Pompidou.</span></p> <p style="text-align: right;"><span><a href="/topic/detail/sons-dessus-dessous/" class="wys-button">Back</a></span></p> <p></p>
