A tribute recorded soon after Giacinto Scelsi's death in 1988, by the Ensemble 2e2m under Paul Méfano, one of the French groups that did the most for his music. The programme moves from the single-sound chamber works of the late fifties and sixties (Kya, Pwyll, Ixor, the Quattro pezzi for trumpet, Ko-Lho, Maknongan) to earlier, more surprising material for piano.
Seventy minutes that show Scelsi's music from the inside: one note examined in its microtonal fluctuations, timbre as a living substance. Co-produced with Radio France and Salabert, issued by Adda in 1990, with notes in four languages and a poem by Scelsi himself.
