Bernard Cavanna , Karl Koop Koncert Following Pascal Contet ...
As I have already written we really appreciated Pascal Contet as an interpreter but also as a "runner" of music: I think he knows how to recognize and appreciate the style of the musicians he chooses to "play". whether Scarlatti, Couperin, Piazzolla or Chopin ... but of course, fortunately or unfortunately?, it does not stick to the "classical" music, it 's also tries to improvisations "liberated", he also plays the "contemporary music"
Recently, he told us of his latest release a concerto for accordion and orchestra by Bernard Cavanna.
course we know (the name ...!) Bernard Cavanna: our "favorites smugglers, Bruno, Philip .. Bernard Cavanna's play, try to bend of a concert we heard ...
We bought
Karl Koop Koncert ...
Intrigued and amused by its subtitle: firefighter comedy, social and realistic ...
My first impression: SOUND, TINTAMMARRE, URBAN, TRAFFIC ...
highway, buildings, works ...
Nadia who works at the other end of his house almost hear the vast and open Faubourg Bonnefoy, "with trucks that have those long horns individuals ... music," adds her!
cities I've seen living like crazy
J 'had once written that some sounds were musical, especially with the return on regular rhythms. By listening to this concerto, I think, conversely we can try to blow the music sounds ...
I think an episode of my childhood: curious words in building construction as children their language, I used fluent word de-construct, how to de-sewing, die-making etc. ... and got on advice rather destroy the word Or worse the word demolish which seemed much less satisfactory in terms of their significance. Later student I smiled to see emerge in the concept of linguistic deconstruction , learnedly preferred to destroy its methodological implications!
Karl Koop Koncerto for me is an attempt deconstruction of dislocation of musical harmony traditional looking for realism, a modern reality proletarian??.
I think ZONE Apollinaire
At the end you are tired of this old world
...
You read the prospectus catalogs posters singing aloud
POETRY That's this morning ...
Pascal
In addition it is difficult to hear in this concerto, as if the sound of the accordion was smothered by the multitude sounds produced by the orchestra, as if he could hardly be heard in this disorder ..
Nevertheless, although often I say "so many things that I do not know and do not suffer from ignorance" and because in fact I do not want to "die stupid" I continue my learning effort
So I explore the DVD, listen to Bernard Cavanna talk about his music ...
The humor of the man, the selling market of Nogent, "Brad" as hawker his music, seems funny and provocative. Although this sort of derision makes the man and his music even more distant from us ... Two interesting
busy ... one who sets pretty much contemporary music, the other who is interested in music, the author and ... with the accordion!.
There is much talk about her mother who loves music and the way she did to the music of the proletariat difficult, "although we do not tell him" ... but if I told him in petto ... culture is sometimes an obstacle to culture, refuses to be broken up and does not necessarily always wrong ...
Then the ride of his childhood in Nogent between excavators, back gardens, houses collapsed, wasteland devastated demolition .. demolition .. I take comfort in my connotations of deconstruction, ZONE urban.
At these connotations, Bernard Cavanna and his cronies are adding the funfair top of the "urban polyphony" of other ratings, the uproar , a very beautiful word and musical sound in Latin, the individual against the multitude , the overthrow of classical concerto, the soloist is no longer master of the orchestra but crushed by his tumult.
I listen, concentrated, and I look, Pascal squashed but resistant to the tumult. Victorious in the end??
Then suddenly a wonderfully melodic music, a wonderful song, a very beautiful voice, violin, cello and accordion ..
I go back to view the reference ...
SCHUBERT'S!
Well this time it is not Pascal, this is more like accordionist Bruno ..
But it was Bruno! ... His Appassionata, her eyes of heaven, his face alert, concentrate on his music, away from reality, so close ... made by the framing of the camera ..
When the pleasure of friendship in addition to the delight of his ...
We find that BCavanna loves Schubert and made a transcript (very nice in my opinion) "for two noble instruments, violin and cello and an instrument prole, accordion ... "
Like as Schubert's a clearing in the initiatory journey full of bumps of unusual music ...
But by dint of listening, we rebuilt, we take pleasure in almost dislocation with failure of such a world exploded.
We take this political vision of musical exploration
... Thank you Pascal!!
I will return again and again the small passage from Schubert to happiness ....
... Thank Schubert, Bruno Cavanna and others!
