🎉✨ Commission spotlight!
A sense of sorrow through overlapping lines that form geometric triangle patterns, moving the frame of the piece. In memory of February 2025. –
This new work, commissioned for ARCo 2025, takes Dérive 1 by Pierre Boulez as both a point of departure and a source of resonance — sharing its instrumentation, but shifting the musical terrain.
Through motivic work, fixed-register harmonies, and a deep affinity for low registers, the piece delves into the dark depths rather than skimming the surface.
A personal and introspective tribute, 100 years after Boulez's birth.

🎶 blue horizons, tinnitus, red train, inorganic lines and their sorrows – for flute, clarinet, vibraphone, piano, violin and cello
📍World premiere on July 7 at La Friche Belle de Mai (Marseille) / Reprise during .ensembles on September 19 at Théâtre l'Échangeur (Bagnolet)
🌌 A drifting architecture of grief, memory, and form

🎉✨ Commission spotlight!
Flexible, malleable, fragile.
The new piece by Lanqing Ding, ARCo 2024 student, explores a material that is both sonic and symbolic. Commissioned for ARCo 2025, it brings together piano and percussion in a fluid form shaped by memory, breath and silence.
"Like the earth that we shape... and that shapes us." -

🎶 Argile – for piano and percussion
📍World premiere on July 7 at La Friche Belle de Mai (Marseille) / Reprise during .ensembles on September 19 at Théâtre l'Échangeur (Bagnolet)
🪨 A poetic and vibrant exploration of texture, resistance, and resonance
