Enregistrement GRM

Levinas' works here are electro-acoustic compositions. He uses filtered microphones and an idiosynchratic mixing of the amplified orchestra in order to transform their sound live (transformation en direct) into a research of the deep and hidden characteristics of the acoustic instruments.
Kessler wrote his works for acoustic and electronic instrument. It is up to the musician to decide how he is going to balance the two. In every piece there is an equal mix of electronic and acoustic instruments, who have to confront each other.
