      This album summarizes a live∼show given everywhere around france since 2013 by Albert Marcœur & le Quatuor Béla ← Frédéric Aurier and Julien Dieudegard at violins, Julian Boutin playing alto, Luc Debreuil at cello, they all sing. Albert Marcœur plays sometimes alone, tables like samplers, taking & editing excerpts from interviews as here with this testimony of a former tuba player from «Orchestre d’Harmonie de Venarey∼lès∼Laumes» (musical samples that cross the «Paquito el Chocolatero» from Gustavo Pascual, with excerpts of Edward Elgar, Adrian Sical or Aaron Copeland). Testimony and treatment as joyful as it is moving. Without forgetting Combinaison Bipolaire → score for voice &  tables reproduced here in the libretto with the composer’s handwritten notes : «racler avec la gorge», «en aspirant», «plaintif» or «gueuler raisonnable». Good reading !

Edited in 2017 via labels of Quatuor BÉLA & brothers Marcœur → LABEL FRÈRES |
