ABOUT THE PIECE:

In this piece for solo conductor, Thierry De Mey pursues his investigation of movement at the heart of the “fact” of music.

The conductor turns to face the audience, takes the beating of his own heart as the beat, and proceeds through a series of ever more complex polyrhythms: 3/5, 5/8, approaching the golden section, he outlines the contours of a music that is silent.

ABOUT THE COMPOSER:

Thierry De Mey, born in 1956, is a composer and filmmaker. An instinctive feel for movement guides his entire work, allowing him to tackle and integrate a variety of disciplines. The premise behind his musical and filmic writing is the desire for rhythm to be experienced in the body or bodies, revealing the musical meaning for the author, performer and audience. He has developed a system of musical writing for movement used in pieces where the visual and choreographic aspects are just as important as the gesture producing the sound, such as in Musique de tables (1987), Silence must be! (2002) and Light Music, which premiered at Lyon’s Musiques en Scène biennial festival in 2004.
