le temps bouge mais n'avance pas (2021)

"desynchronies chromatiques" propose un déplacement temporel et spatial du Prélude de la IVème Suite de J. S. Bach pour violoncelle seul.
Un univers tendu entre l’originel et la rupture de sa temporalité constante crée à partir du dialogue entre les deux quatuors et la variation de l’intonation et chromatisme.

Composition: Gemma Ragués Pujol
NEC&Castel Camerata

Concert: 26 June 2021, Théâtre du Concert (Neuchâtel)

desynchronies chromatiques - BACH revisited (2020)

Double-edged circle is based on the transformation idea about the fluidity and volatility of ourselves and the capacity to recognize the evil of our nature: the Jungian idea of accepting your own shadow, the unconscious aspect of the personality, which sometimes can be dark and even frightening. Repetitiveness that is slowly developing, constantly exchanging between the different disciplines, and influencing both ways represents the interconnectedness between positive and negative, the need to be both in order to reach a balance. Double-edged circle is a contradiction about needing the two opposites in order to complete the circle.

Idea and choreography by Gabrielle Emily Aidulis.
