Sounds Like: a few words about my «chroniques d'hochelaga»....-------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
«chroniques d'hochelaga 1 : mardi à la buanderie» ( tuesday at the laudrymat in hochelaga ...) ... a few nights ago i dreamed of a piece for cello, break drums and loop machine... today i tried to write the music i did hear in this silly dream and tried record it ! if you go to see my album of pictures called «chroniques d'hochelaga» you can see pictures of the weird instrument i created, sketches of the score, pedals etc. enjoy it !-----------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------«chroniks d'hochelaga 1 with cello » : yaya ! the cello part is ready and recorded now !!! ------------------------------------------------------------

most of my pieces are compositions that can be played by solo instruments or many different ensembles of musicians... it can be played by 1 musician, 2 musicians, 3 musicians, 4 musicians... or 1000 musicians !!! ok maybe not 1000 but let's say by a large ensemble.... i'm using a lot of «by chance» techniques». each part is independent from the other parts, that why it offers 1000 possibilities... some parts are totaly written from the begining to the end, and other parts are structures for improvisations. but even for the written parts, the musician has to do «kind of an improvisation» because he/she has to take decisions concerning the form of the piece. let's say he/she can play the series of written musical events in the way he/she wants to do it, according to specific rules that he/she has to follow of course... so it's almost impossible that theses pieces could be played twice the exact same way.
