Prix Qwartz6 experimental/research 2010 Bruit blanc Pour électroacoustique seule. C’est une recherche serrée des sons proches d’un bruit blanc sur le territoire des marais salants de Guérande. La mer en est très proche sans qu’on l’entende jamais, et pourtant tous les sons semblent s’y rattacher, en provenir. NaCl Pièce mixte (instrumental et électroacoustique). Tous les sons sont d’origine instrumentale ; ils prennent leur source directement dans le paysage sonore en utilisant des données météo comme système de hauteurs, et en cherchant dans l’imitation du paysage de nouvelles ressources et modes de jeux instrumentaux. Set marais Pièce pour paysage sonore reconstruit, clarinette basse et traitements. ------------------------------- Bruit Blanc For only electroacoustics It's a deep research of sounds similar to a white sound on the place of the salt marsh of Guérande. The sea is at hand without being ever heard, and yet every sound seems to be linked. NaCl Benjamin Carat: Cello Olivier Fiard: Percussions Donatienne Michel-Dansac: Voice Christophe Rocher: Clarinet Lionel Shmit: Violin With the chorus of the school of music of Guérande. Mixed piece (instrumental and electroacoustic) Sounds which comes from an instrumental background and directly rise in the marsh by processing one year of weather forecast data as a height system, and by looking for totally new instrumental resources and playing modes in the sound landscape. Set Marais Christophe Rocher: Bass clarinet and voice For rebuilt sound landscape, bass clarinet and processing. The landscape of the salt marsh doesn't have bass. its spectrum is rather high. S, the bass clarinet works as its low register, and processing increase tenfold its potential: bass clarinet and processing represent the slow transformation of the elements to make salt.
