Presentation
1900-1910 (Debussy, Bartok, Schönberg) / 1950-1960 (Stockhausen, Boulez, Barraqué, Xenakis)
Three overtures to a new world, which are conveyed by the works proposed to the trainees : Etudes by Debussy, Mikrokosmos (extracts) by Bartok ; Schoenberg op.33 a et b, 6 kleine klavierstücke op.19, 5 pieces op.23. Then the generation 1950-1960 : works by Stockhausen, Boulez, Barraqué and Xenakis (Mists and Herma).
One reflection and researches week which will allow, on the one hand, to approach an unusual piano repertoire, which requires to challenge the idea of an approach of the work by analysis.
On the other hand, this week will allow, as far as body movements are concerned, to work on a comparison and historical return to works of the past, their architecture, their means of achievement, their deep motivation, finding back the refusal or the acceptation of the “model” by the descendants. Heirs or rebels ?
