Extremely patient compositions for electronics, cello, guitar and tenor sax from French sound and visual artist Pierre Gerard: "Air" using recordings from his duo partner of tenor saxophonist Bertrand De Lamalle with long sections of silence; "Cavity" employs previously recorded guitar improvisations that interact with Gerard's live electronic improvisations.
"The sound work of Pierre Gerard (also a visual artist) is known for his discretion and his silences. These records are easy to listen to at night and the house creaks will appear as accompaniments to his compositions.
Matter in the auditory sense is always at the center of his compositions. Field recording, the use of objects or electroacoustics feed his universe.
He has been approaching the acoustic instrument since 2006.
Accustomed to collaborations - with Sylvain Chauveau or Jim Denley among others - he met Bertrand de Lamalle, all-terrain saxophonist former collaborator of Elephant Leaf, nowadays officiating within L'Oeil Kollectif and Grande Vacance."-PointCulture TV
