L'orage du 14 Juillet

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
That's it, we thought of everything. We are ready. We wait. Countdown. And then comes a storm. Disorganization. As if to tell us the imperfection. The storm passes. We live by proxy. And we are still ready. And we are still waiting. But there is no more countdown. A woman or a revolution ... to love and to suffer, sometimes we want to never forget. This piece was made with the director's voice, Shakespeare's texts, "media" quotes and many sound-recording sessions.

Peaceful Settlement of Disputes

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Words, words, words…….!! Respect for human rights, for freedom of the spoken and written word. Somebody wanted to say something, others too. Hundreds wanted to speak, to say what they are thinking. But the answer is a battalion of machineguns………… A National Anthem is beginning to sound, than another and it increases and increases. It ends in chaos; the nations can’t come to an agreement. It seems to crumble down. There is a Final Act - does it help? Does it work? Time will tell. The Festival of Electronic Music at Bourges has commissioned this composition. It has been realized in the studios of Radio Hilversum.
