Les Métaboles and the Multilateral Ensemble in an Italian program for the Festival d'Automne:
Luigi Nono - Quando stanno morendo
Salvatore Sciarrino - Addio case del vento, Canzona di ringraziamento, Cresce veloce un cristallo
Luzzasco Luzzaschi - Non sa che sia dolore, Aura soave di segreti accenti, Io mi son Giovinetta, O dolcezze amarissime d’amore, Diario Polacco
With the Ensemble Multilatérale, the Choeur de Radio France illustrates the Italian madrigal tradition, which starts with Gesualdo and, via the great Luciano Berio, is cultivated more than ever by Fausto Romitelli, who died prematurely in 2004, and the very contemporary Francesco Filidei.
September
Multilaterale and Métaboles in a Portuguese program:
Emmanuel Nunes - Versus III, Omens II, Minnesang
Vicente Lusitano - Heu me domine
Manuel Cardoso - Introit de la Missa pro defunctis
For this final concert, the five ensembles come together for a total of eighteen musicians and two soloists. Around four composers, the program declines the question of Origin: origin of an idea, a sound, a sound sensation.
This concert, the result of a partnership between the Festival Ensemble(s) and the jazz department of the Royal Birmingham Conservatory, explores the links between contemporary music and jazz. Five students from the Royal Birmingham Conservatory join five musicians from the 5 Ensemble(s) for the interpretation of two creations, commissioned from two composers belonging to the double culture of improvised/written music: the Frenchman Sébastien Gaxie and the American John O' Gallagher.
How do works, from a poetic and symbolic point of view, respond to each other? If these resonances exist, are they relevant from a perceptual point of view? The bet of this program is to try to give an answer to the question of a possible balance through the choice of the instrumentation and the personality of the soloists who will appropriate these four sound worlds. The unknown is all the greater when the variable of a creation is introduced...

It's hapening in someone's head. Thoughts are disposed in chambers, opening and closing. Stories are told, visions and scenes collide and melt, until madness. There is the obsession for Colonel Kurz' face from Apocalypse Now. A wanderding in Berlin in winter. The crack on the wall sucking up people's mind, jaws, nights up. There's Abraham's knife on Isaac's throat. A dear in autumn. A woman collapsing and shouting twice.

Messe, an Ordinary Day is articulated around two texts : the ritual text of the ceremony and the words of Laurence, a young woman, driftig, drug addict, inspired by Jean-Michel Carré's documentary "Galères de femmes". Those two texts plays on contrasts, as one uses a collective speak, vehement, crushing, full of certainty, against an individual speach, modest, human and disposable.

Symétriades/Extensions takes is a work with three correlated focus: performance, sound and visual. The poetic universe of this project is directly inspired by Stanislas Lem’s science fiction novel Solaris. Solaris is a planet orbiting around two suns with its whole surface covered by an ocean of protoplasmic matter. A total enigma for the scientists studying it for more than a century.
The central scene originated in an image from the TV news: Margaret Thatcher's visit to Augusto Pinochet in 1999 in an apartment in London during the pre-trial detention of the old dictator accused of a crime against humanity. The relationship between the two of them goes back to there alliance during the Malouines war in 1982 that followed the occupation of those islands by Argentinian military who had made disappear thirty thousand people in that murderous conflict.

This new project was born out of a common desire to unite the Ensemble Multilatérale and the Orchestre National de Jazz ONJ in a singular creation situated at a crossroads where ambitions are placed in a single dynamic process: the quest for the unprecedented. Raphaël Cendo, a French composer living in Berlin, has long been a loyal companion of Multilatérale, and musically he has been marked by the concept of saturation, which also has strong resonances within the ONJ’s own musical orientations.

Almost fifty years after its controversial creation, its experimental form and the boldness of its libretto make of this Passion a work like no other. Inspired by Justine and the Story of Juliette de Sade, and a sonnet from Louise Labé, poetess of the XVIth century, this contemporary opera follows a variety of scenes as a dive into love and lust.
