Par LACHENMANN HELMUT. temA was written in the summer of 1968. In spite of Ligeti's “Aventures” it may be considered one of the first compositions in which the breathing plays a role as an accoustically transmitted energy process (Holliger, Globokar, Kagel, Schnebel and Stockhausen in “Hymnen” have already worked on this phenomenon independently of each other and from different points of view). Moreover, “temA” marks for me the first step into that “musique concrète instrumentale” in which the mechanical conditions of the sound production are incorporated into the composition. This characterizes my later pieces such as Kontrakadenz, Air, Pression etc. more consistently. In temA, unlike what happened in my previous works, the naturalistic extreme cases were consciously accepted but at the same time integrated into a very rigorous musical context which was also to give a new meaning to the traditional playing conceptions. The violation of the tabus felt in the nearly 70s (not only regarding this piece) lay to a less degree in the phenomenon of the sound deformation (snoring, pressed strings, soundless blowing etc.), since such an “alienation” was perfectly tolerated as an humoristic, dadaistic or expressionistic element. Rather the shock was caused by the technical logic of the movements which rendered relative the sheer surrealistic effect and had to be taken seriously instead of in an humoristic way.

Par LELONG MICHEL. L'ambition de cet ouvrage est de vous initier (ou vous perfectionner) au Blues acoustique, traditionnel et contemporain. Autrement dit, il vous amènera à travailler et comprendre les bases indispensables du style, jusqu'à l'analyse des 'racines', au travers des oeuvres des principaux créateurs. Et ceci, aussi bien du point de vue de l'analyse musicale que du point de vue purement géographique ! Cette démarche vous aidera alors à construire votre propre blues, tout en assimilant progressivement les différents courants de cette musique. Vous travaillerez ainsi en premier lieu les généralités du style, c'est à dire toutes les techniques, spécificités et autres clichés primaires, propres au blues acoustique, traditionnel ou contemporain. Vous aborderez alors les études de styles : le texas blues, le delta blues, l'east coast blues, les métissages, le louisiana blues et enfin le blues contemporain. Ces différents chapitres seront l'occasion de vous enrichir de nouvelles techniques spécifiques, tout en cernant plus particulièrement les attributs de ces divers courants musicaux ! Des morceaux complets viennent illustrer les nombreuses techniques étudiées, vous permettant ainsi de mettre en application les différents enseignements. Enfin, le CD vous permet d'entendre les nombreux exemples, morceaux et autres exercices de la méthode, pour vous aider dans leur exécution et leur compréhension./ Méthode / Guitare

Par HADLEY J.CASTILLE. Learn from a Cajun Fiddle Master himself, Hadley J. Castille, as he explains your favorite Cajun Songs!! Hadley J. Castille is one of the finest exponents of authentic South Louisiana Cajun fiddle music. Ever since his epiphany during a tour of Canada in the early 80s, Hadley J. Castille has represented a rare side of Cajun music history. While most practitioners follow the typical accordion-fiddle model, culling tunes from the standards vault, Castille's roots are a direct link to the Cajun Swing era of the late 30s, specifically those of Cajun swing fiddle king Harry Choates. In this interactive DVD, Hadley and his band The Sharecroppers perform original and favorites as well as an explanation of how and why Hadley plays these songs. When being used as a fiddle teaching tool, this fully interactive DVD can teach both intermediate and advanced students. / Niveau : Intermédiaire à Avancé / Cajun-Zydeco - Methods / Méthode / Violon

Threshold of Night (a setting one of Kathleen Raine's Three Poems of Incarnation) was commissioned by St John's College, Cambridge and was premièred under the direction of David Hill in the College chapel on 25th November 2006. Written for Advent, the work aims to highlight the yearning that all societies have, in their time of need, for guidance from beyond their community. By coincidence, however, this composition was completed on the eve of 29th August 2006, one year after Hurricane Katrina, one of the deadliest in the history of the United States, made landfall in Louisiana. Looking at Raine's words in this context ('Go back, my child, to the rain and storm', 'I will not go back for sorrow or pain'), the poem can be seen to echo the conflicted and anguished thoughts of displaced New Orleanians. The original Advent sense ofdesired guidance takes on a specific, if unintentional, significance with regards to the tragic outcome of that hurricane - this is emphasized by the bluesinflectedharmonies found throughout Threshold of Night . / SATB
