IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME // 24 // La Cathédrale engloutie (Debussy) // Arc-en-Ciel (Ligeti) from Lise Bruyneel on Vimeo.

A piano ritual/recital with live electronics and live video, remembering Marcel Proust.
How illusory is our human time experience?
The concert has two main characters, Claude Debussy and Gabriel Dupont, but also consists of many voluntary and involuntary memories (Couperin, Bach, Beethoven, Schumann), of testimonies by contemporaries of the narrators (Chausson, Busoni, Bartók), and of connections with a more recent past through the work of master temporal illusionist György Ligeti (namely with his Etudes), but also Kurtag and Nono.
Jan Michiels (piano), Juan Parra Cancino (liv electronics) & Lise Bruyneel (live video)
Live recorded at the Royal Brussels Conservatory, 17th February 2021
