PIERRE BERTHET – FRÉDÉRIC LE
JUNTER :
L'enclume des jours
Catalog reference number: IPS 0411.
CD release date: April, 2011.
(This title is taken for « foam of the days », a novel by Boris
Vian. « Foams » has been changed for « anvil » since in french,
« foam » stands for « écume » and « anvil » for « enclume »)
Raw concrete music. Tubular dums, horns, nails, wind and rotary
organs, water droplets, automatic bow, springs, foot bass, iron
wires, tins, barrels, mirrors, singing... So many indications to
penetrate the music of Pierre Berthet and Frédéric Le Junter, two
french artists. This is a clever mix between the soundscape of our
society (the concrete item of the music) and the creative diversion
for construction and composition, in order to give an expressive
signification of this world. We really are in the center of the
globalization of our lifes; our urban future based on our agricultural
roots.
These recordings of the miniCD (30 min long) were performed in
the mid 90's, when Pierre Berthet and Frédéric Le Junter played
duo, with already some memories recorded on a CD published in 1994
on the Vand'Oeuvre french label. Today, InPolySons produces unreleased
material from the same days, composed for the ballet show « Love
is a stranger» of the late William Douglas (1953-1996) (excepted
the last piece which appeared on a Vand'Oeuvre compilation). These
are sounds staged for us, meaning sounds through simple and raw
words, as a metaphor of the real life.
