フィールドレコーディングと演奏の間を行くサウンドアート物件!!テキスト、写真、地図などを掲載したリソグラフ印刷物が付属するカッコイイ装丁!!Globe Unity Orchestra、 King Übü Örchestrü、The Celestrial Communication Orchestra、London Improvisers Orchestraなど、既に多くの歴史的な参照例がある大編成の即興演奏。その発展を試みる形にてベースプレイヤーのDavid Chiesaが設立した即興演奏団体"Le Un"。フランスの南部を流れるドルドーニュ川の一画で行なった、集団即興による創作録音作[Rivage(s)]。水辺が持つ特殊な場所性に導かれる様に河口域に沿ってリサーチを行い、異なる3つのチームでのセッションを経て、最終的には参加者全員が集うオーケストラ編成で記録した、実に様々な発見のある興味深い観察的物件。演奏というよりは会話や物音などが入り混じる日常の延長の様なサウンドスケープ。

In 2021, at the invitation of Chant du Moineau, Le Un experimented
in collective spontaneous creating on a section of the Dordogne River.
In an aquatic and poetic logic of space, Le Un continued its research along the Gironde estuary. Three working sessions with three different teams, ultimately bringing together the entire orchestra and our guests: Claire Steimer, historian, Olivier Chadoin, sociologist, Eric Chauvier, anthropologist, Guillaume Bonnel, photographer and also Antoine Boutet, film-maker present throughout this second part. Claire, Eric, Guillaume and Antoine are the observers of this experiment. By analogy, they intersect and corroborate our methods with their respective practices.
