Breathisdancing

Commissioned by La Pop, the new venue for staging music

Commissioned work

Breath­is­dan­cing is a response to La Pop’s com­mis­sion-ques­tion: what would an “aug­men­ted recit­al” be?
The pro­pos­al focuses on breath as a trig­ger for sounds, move­ments, affects and emotions.
Three body-breath­er-instru­ment­al­ists meet and work from grids of music­al, tem­por­al and phys­ic­al con­straints set by Alban Richard, with the sole object­ive of con­stantly gen­er­at­ing sound and move­ment. To gen­er­ate is to pro­duce some­thing, to make it an ines­cap­able con­sequence, to engender it, to be its source.
It is the atten­tion of the three per­formers man­u­fac­tur­ing this sound sculp­ture that determ­ines, in the moment, the pos­sib­il­it­ies of the movements.
The sounds they pro­duce accu­mu­late to cre­ate a mass, spec­tral music, an ima­gin­ary landscape.
Con­stantly trans­form­ing, this magma of tex­tures, qual­it­ies and rhythms, forces the audi­ence to redefine their bear­ings or to lose them­selves in this hybrid sound mapping.
