Le soi, le choix et les autres

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Dimitrios Iatropoulos's "Le soi, le choix et les autres" ("The self, the choice and the others"), five songs composed on the voice of Tibby Sachet. Iatropoulos calls this work a "composition psychoacoustique" ("psychoacoustic composition"). It is a study on the expansion and travesty of the voice that corresponds to the continual contradiction between the self and the choice of the woman. The choices the woman is faced with it that of active/passive, dad/mom, woman/girl, self/others. It is a representation of average female forces in a medium social environment in a language that is not too formal and not too casual. The intensity of the sentences are amplified by the montage on the magnetic tape which reflects the speed of the woman's thoughts.
