Les déplacements

2017

(score booklet, 48 p. 320 x 335 mm ; music stand)

This graphical score for breath uses as its source a set of maps representing contemporary migratory flows of human populations as published in the press, school manuals or at the initiative of international organisations. Each page of the score presents a network of arrows. No instrument is needed to play the score but wind instruments or other pipes can be used if the performers so wish. In any case, no notes or articulated sounds are played. The participants play the score simply by breathing out.
