Title Description:
French composer Jean-Luc Guionnet plays a variety of instruments, ranging from amplified objects to saxophone, but he is mostly known for playing organs. Church organs to be more precise. Of these five pieces, one is recorded in concert and the others without audience. It is not strange to think that Guionnet plays drone music, but he doesn't. Guionnet is a skillfull improviser on such a difficult instrument for improvisation. In 'Abrege' he plays short notes, opening various registers, closing them and offers a rather hectic scene. As a total contrast stands 'Cromorne & Fonds' which starts out maybe as a sort of drone piece, but slowly builts in shorter notes and tones, but which sound quite creepy. This is certainly not easy music. The compositions/improvisations are not easy to digest and the length of some of the material, doesn't make this very easy to swallow. But if taken in small doses, this is a true beauty. (FdW)
