| |
| A wonderful sampling of Luc Ferrari's work, Presque Rien also may |
| serve as a smooth introduction to the world of musique concrete. |
| His "Music Promenade," which opens the album, is a combination of |
| ambient sounds (including marching bands and laughing girls) |
| augmented by electronically processed sounds and snatches of other |
| prerecorded music. It's actually illustrative of some of the |
| pitfalls that can occur when a collage of this type is overly |
| forced and the result is somewhat awkward. This is decidedly not |
| the case with "Presque Rien No. 1." While the title translates to |
| "almost nothing," the reality of the piece is far different. |
| Rather, the piece is nothing less than a rich, sonic recreation of |
| an early morning in a Yugoslavian seaside village. Though one |
| knows he must have engaged in substantial manipulation, Ferrari's |
| touch is virtually invisible. Instead one is transported to a |
| beach where bird cries, outboard motors, children singing, and, |
| more than anything, cicadas chirping surround the listener, |
| offering a startlingly immediate sensation of "being there." More, |
| of being in a heightened state of awareness. "Presque Rien No. 2" |
| is a more private, though no less beguiling affair, as the |
| composer talks softly to himself while walking through a very |
| sonically active field. As in the first piece, there are again |
| purely musical adornments, but here they meld beautifully with the |
| natural sounds. AMG Review |
