Robert Marcel Lepage, who has collaborated with Quebec film-maker Pierre Hu;bert for over a decade, is now treating us to the soundtrack of Hubert's animation film: La Plante humaine.
"For his phonographic opus, Lepage chose to distance himself from the vocal style of film operas. Instead, this is a symphonic rendition of this lyrical work, a non-stop version of the fragmented pieces in the film. Through a skillful, fluid editing, "La plante humaine" offers a continuity and a legato that are more musical than audiovisual. Shining with contrasts between neo-romantic borrowings and modern rhythms, African percussions, hard rock and jazz and, reminiscences of Varese-like tapestries of sound music, "La Plante humaine" shows Robert Marcel Lepage taking part in the contemporary opera." -Real La Rochelle
