about

First volume of three imagined by Luc Ferrari.

Luc Ferrari : I have made works that more or less depart from purely musical concerns. Some of them call for a meeting between different branches of what may be the same tree. The problem is to express in different ways the passing ideas, feelings and intuitions, to observe daily life in all its realities whether they be social, psychological or sentimental. These could come out in the form of texts, instrumental works, electro-acoustic compositions, journalism, films or shows.

Les anecdotiques
Luc Ferrari's diverse work and aesthetics continue to have a singular impact on the young generations of electronic musicians and artists. The corpus of his work is immense and includes hundreds of compositions of all kinds. Les Anecdotiques - his last composition - is a vast sound-film of more than an hour who explores in 15 steps the intensity of re-composed sounds from his continual travel around the world - with electronic additional structures.

Luc Ferrari : the re-build pass
Even if his art is historically linked to the musique concrète school, Luc Ferrari (born in Paris in 1929) is above all a man with a freedom of spirit rarely equalled in the history of music, who has repeatedly left what he excelled at for new territory still unexplored; thus he is par excellence the composer of new fields of investigation

Ferrari joined the Groupe de Musique Concrète in 1958 and remained a member until 1966; he collaborated with Pierre Schaeffer in setting up the Groupe de Recherches Musicales (1958). By 1963-4 he had begun Hétérozygote, an extended tape piece in which ambient sounds unfold in narrative form, suggesting a dazzling variety of incidents, all unexplained. He was Professor of Composition at Cologne's Rheinische Musikschule from 1964 to 65. In 1965 and 1966 he produced Les Grandes Répétitions, a series of television documentaries with Gérard Patris on the subject of contemporary music, specifically Olivier Messiaen, Edgard Varèse, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Hermann Scherchen and Cecil Taylor.

about

Luc Ferrari Paris, France

1929 – 2005

Never ceasing to investigate, Luc Ferrari leaves behind a body of work by turns exalting, noble, funny, intimate, and nocturnal. Like a mirror turned toward the Other, it reflects the world and its fantasies.

He had a weakness for women with accents.
