On March 17th 2017, Gary Heidt invited me, part of his Lovesphere Festival 22 in Greensboro, to perform live on UNCG radio WUAG.

During two hours, my solo was broadcast through multiple devices in Greensboro Project Space (GPS) and a dozen musicians reacted and played 'with me' in the middle of the audience.

I then sent the recording of the solo to close friends and collaborators in Europe and USA, invited them to record a second voice on top of mine, therefore creating a duo.

They were free to record one or several (on a total of seven) piece(s).

I'll publish a record early 2018, juxtaposing and mixing all the voices I got for each track.

You can enjoy below the 40 duos created by these wonderful musicians!

 

Le 17 mars 2017, Gary Heidt m'a invité, dans le cadre de son festival Lovesphere 22 à Greensboro, à jouer en direct sur la radio universitaire WUAG.

Durant deux heures, mon solo était diffusé par de nombreuses radio au GPS (Greensboro Public Space) dans lequel une douzaine de musiciens ont réagi et joué 'avec moi'.'

J'ai ensuite envoyé l'enregistrement du solo à des amis musiciens en les invitant à enregistrer une seconde voix au-dessus de la mienne, créant ainsi un duo à distance.

Chacun pouvait enregistrer un ou plusieurs (sur un total de sept) morceau(x).

Je publierai un disque au début 2018, juxtaposant et mixant toutes les voix que j'ai reçue pour chaque morceau.

Vous pouvez écouter ci-dessous les 40 duos créés par ces formidables musiciens!
