Tetrao Tetrix – Badrutt Guinnet Loriot u. Vicard-Lucifora

Tetrao Tetrix – Badrutt Guionnet Loriot It’s about affinity and it’s a trio. A trio made up of two altos of two different species, to the nearest half-tone. One is made of strings, wood, and horsehair, the other is made of metal, reed, leather, and plastic. The third point of the triangle is mainly made of electrons and membranes. It’s a matter of infinity, but there are three of us. Elective affinities ＆ electrical affinities. What to say about an upcoming music? It is improbable. Attention to the details: extreme. Tension at all. On purpose, without design. Rubbing, blowing and membranes, alone in the center of the cauldron. All with silence probably. And at least once, the maximum without prior prohibition. Probably, at least. There’s noise, too. There will be…and in a triangle.
