Par MURAIL TRISTAN. Liber fulguralis est une 'création commune', dont les composantes musicale et visuelle ont été élaborées simultanément par Tristan Murail et Hervé Bailly-Basin. Inspirée de l'art d'interpréter les foudres des oracles antiques, cette oeuvre développe sur presque une demi-heure les ramifications d'un unique coup de foudre. Celui-ci survient à l'issue d'un prologue de forme inhabituelle - une minute de scintillement sonore et lumineux, à la limite du perceptible - et se ré-expose par la suite, pour être 'interprété' d'innombrables manières... Aussi les anciennes prétentions de la divination cèdent-elles la place à l'exégèse poétique d'un des phénomènes les plus fascinants de la nature. Tristan Murail poursuit ainsi un travail entrepris avec les bruits de la mer (Le partage des eaux) et de la pluie (Le lac): une dissection des sons concrets en composantes élémentaires, au moyen des techniques récentes d'analyse spectrale, puis un redéploiement de ces matériaux et de leurs multiples transmutations dans l'espace-temps musical. Dans Liber fulguralis les mouvements du son se conjuguent avec ceux de l'image. Hervé Bailly-Basin approfondit ici le processus mis en oeuvre dans ses précédentes collaborations avec Murail: de prises de vue effectuées à différentes vitesses et échelles sont extraits des fragments dont la recomposition avec des éléments de pure synthèse fait émerger une 'vision' d'un tout autre ordre, aux confins du perceptif, de l'imaginaire et du symbolique. / contemporain / Répertoire / Ensemble Instrumental, Synthèse Electronique et Vi

Apple Records was a noble experiment created in the spirit of the 1960s by four musicians who came to represent everything that was best about those tumultuous, experimental, and liberating times. The Beatles started out with the greatest of intentions, but reality soon got in the way. Much has been written about this period in the history of The Beatles' evolution and dissolution---some of it true, some of it wildly exaggerated, but not much of it first-hand. The Longest Cocktail Party is a rare exception. Written by Richard DiLello, who served as Apple Record's 'House Hippie' from 1968 to 1970, this unusual first-hand glimpse into The Beatles' empire humorously chronicles the stranger-than-life stories that were to become legendary, including visits by the Hell's Angels and endless tales of celebrity antics. Alfred Music is proud to offer this latest edition, which features a new and insightful foreword by the author. Originally published by Playboy Press in 1972, The Longest Cocktail Party has proven itself a timeless chronicle of this most colorful period in pop history. / Divers
