Concert at the Eglise du Saint-Esprit (12e) organised for the benefit of the project of installation of the future great organ. Presale sold out, few tickets at the door.
To end the festival, Closer Music takes over the Eglise du Saint-Esprit alongside Les Inspirations Visibles (a project by Hampus Lindwall and Stephen O'Malley) to present an original performance by Charlemagne Palestine.
On the organ of the Eglise du Saint-Esprit, he presents a unique version of Schingen Blängen - a process that the artist has developed for pipe organs around the world.
This concert is organised for the benefit of the association Des Grandes Orgues à l'église du Saint-Esprit - Jeanne Demessieux, in support of the project to install the future great organ.
Since the 1960s he has begun to develop an alternative approach to electronic sounds, the human voice, the pianoforte and the organ. In the early seventies he created a timbre adventure process especially for pipe organs that dialogues between each unique organ in its unique architecture, and entitled this work SCHLINGEN BLÄNGEN. For many years he has developed countless versions of this process for organs all over the world. He calls these processes 'ORGAN CONTINUUMSSS'.
