Of
this Momentum Song (forty)
We
said what
we
wanted. To
say then was
to
improve mood
with
the water of
our
fluent speaking.
Cast away numbers
returned in woolgathered
tableaus. Confiscated
rest,
the caliber too good
not
to walk into. We
with Drum, await
a
why toward what we’re
doing,
as to say a bee
causing
fear
is only drawing
dropped
syllables
into
the answer the watcher
refuses
to inhale. Rise,
we aim to the
upper stair of
each
worded
phrase,
structured. We
stare
to inject
pause into
what
wasn’t,
what
wasn’t
as means to
inherit
what
wasn’t hidden…
to us—
then, what leads
us
is prose. Enunciation
hears itself, ex
-plains
meaning,
an immediate
excavation
curates sound as
body.
Myth is lonely, was
seen shaking
at
the burn of no
air, from Truth’s
visual grip, determined
occultation.

So what was said
and the sound was
symphony of

Marseilles-based composer Pierre Sauvageot created "Harmonic Fields," a wind symphony for a moving audience and 500 wind-powered musical instruments that form a veritable orchestra and include the different sections of symphonic ensembles (woodwind, strings, percussion), including harmonic cellos, vibrating drums, windmill glockenspiels, bamboo whistles, propeller sirens, gyrating musical boxes, Balinese scarecrows, chromatic tepees, pentatonic grails, acoustic bows, flute trees, and rattlesnake fishing rods,
ReplyDeleteThe landscapes which play host to the traveling exhibit become the object, subject, and the medium of the creation, so he choice of site is particularly important: open space, uplands or along the coast, far from urban centers but readily accessible by the public. Spectators move freely around the site, creating their own routes or relaxing on loungers as they choose. The musical-visual composition, in collaboration with Jany Jérémie and Toni Casalonga, involves organizing the assembly to enhance the dialogue between resonance, space, and temporalities; anticipating walking speed and the time it takes the audience to stop and listen, and the blind sections. The artmusic festivals also include roaming "Windmills," performers, dancers, and actors who emphasize the musical space, organize blind sections, impress images, and tell stories.
