MUSIQUE CONCRÉTE
Jérôme Noetinger / Lionel Marchetti

"Organizing sounds in time" (Jérôme Noetinger)

With this concert, Marchetti and Noetinger want to present another aspect of their artistic work, namely pieces of "fixed" sounds, of "concrete" music. By playing their own pieces as well as an interpretation of works by Canadian Jean-François Laporte, they will install a sound space and introduce three different approaches to Musique concrète.
If you want to put it correctly, Musique concrète is the electro-acoustic music developed around 1950 by Pierre Schaeffer in Paris, music which is recorded on tape and reproduced via loudspeakers. These "concrete" sounds of everyday life are recorded with microphones. Or as Noetinger says: "What is most important is to simply listen. That's where Musique concrète starts."
