* Onkyo no hako (2010)
Radical and beautiful portrait of cellist Hugues Vincent. From subtle bow techniques to raw material for strings, this 3rd solo recording displays a collection of very personal ways of playing recorded live in studio. A rare music for solo cello drifting between immediacy and austerity. Composed & performed by Hugues Vincent — Recorded & mixed in 2010.

* Tales Of Noboru (2008)
Astonishing second solo publication inspired by Yukio Mishima's book The Sailor Who Fell from Grace With The Sea and focusing on real-time electro-acoustic editing and mixing. This new opus "tells" a fragmentary story in the shape of a long and unique (sound)-composition. An impressive work full of details and narrative passion(s) that displays the original craftmanship of a free performer. Conceived & performed by Hugues Vincent — Recorded & mixed in 2009. Ref. odl.SqEd-690 - Published on Odiolorgnette/Soliloq Edition. <A href="http://www.odiolorgnette.com/soliloq.html"> <TT> [more]</TT> </A>

* Phonoscope & fabulettes (2007)
First recording of cellist/object manipulator Hugues Vincent. 11 tracks surrounding real-time mixing and electro-acoustic sound-material. A very personal work between radio-plays, film music and sonic experiments. Conceived & performed by Hugues Vincent — Recorded & mixed in 2007. Ref. odl.SqEd-660 - Published on Odiolorgnette/Soliloq Edition. <A href="http://www.odiolorgnette.com/soliloq.html"> <TT> [more]</TT> </A>

w/ Celluloïd

* The chatterbox & the singing hat (2005)
First recording of Celluloïd — a collaborative project involving cellist Hugues Vincent and multi-instrumentalist Franck Smith. Free improvisations including cartoon music, noise orgy, pseudo-romanticism & peculiar radio-drama. A surprising stereo sound-puzzle story told by two effervescent minds. Composed & performed by Hugues Vincent & Franck Smith — Recorded & mixed in 2005. Ref. odl.9173-640 - Published on Odiolorgnette. <A href="http://www.odiolorgnette.com/discography.html"> <TT> [more]</TT> </A>
