In addition to the German Première of their musique concrète composition
Filarium on Nov. 7th at Villa Elisabeth, Michel Chion, Lionel Marchetti
and Jérôme Noetinger will also be performing a selection of their works
through the largest wave field synthesis / WFS
system: Installed around the entire hall, over 2000 speakers, controlled
by a computer cluster with 832 audio channels, allowing creation of
sound sources anywhere in the space and providing a near-complete degree
of immersion for the listener.
Michel Chion
Composer of musique concrète, Chion has created to date forty works for
fixed sounds on audio support – some large, including a Requiem, several
„melodrama“, suites , symphonies, etc… In 1970, he invented his own
techniques („impeded scroll“, „pencil“) to use creatively the tape
recorder, which – combined or not with the computer – remains its
preferred tool. Michel Chion is also a filmmaker, an associate professor
at the Université de Paris, and a prolific writer on film, sound, and music.
