«Ce n’est pas assez de simplement jouer les bonnes notes au bon moment et de la bonne manière; il faut aussi avoir la bonne conscience. Cela place l’interprète dans un rôle d’explorateur de l’intérieur pour produire, et lui demande de rester tranquille pour être actif.»

— Pauline Oliveros

Ces mots de Pauline Oliveros nous parlent de l’influence fondamentale qu’a eu Alvin Lucier sur le développement des musiques nouvelles et de leur interprétation. Ils nous rappellent à la fois à notre rôle d’explorateur du son, et aussi à l’attrait irrésistible que le monde de Lucier a toujours exercé sur notre quatuor. Nous avons eu le bonheur et l’honneur de travailler avec Alvin à plusieurs reprises, et plus souvent encore, celui de jouer sa musique. Quand il nous a demandé à l’hiver 2020 de publier les enregistrements d’un concert donné à Montréal en 2015, nous avons décidé d’y consacrer ce nouvel album. C’est avec un brin de fébrilité que nous lui dédions ce disque! — Isabelle Bozzini

“It is not enough just to play the right notes at the right time in the right way; one must also have the right consciousness. It places the performer in the role of explorer of the interior in order to produce, and being still in order to be active.”

— Pauline Oliveros

These words, spoken by Pauline Oliveros, remind us of how fundamental an influence Alvin Lucier has had on the development of new music and its interpretation; they remind us of our role as explorers of sound, and of the irresistible appeal that Lucier’s world has always had for our quartet. We have had the pleasure and honour of working with Alvin on several occasions, playing his music even more often. When he asked us in the winter of 2020 to release recordings of a Montréal concert from 2015, we decided to devote a new album to this music. It is with excitement that we now dedicate this disc to him! — Isabelle Bozzini

Collection QB Montreal, Québec

With its Collection QB, the Quatuor Bozzini gives life to the diverse aesthetics of our time. The music in this collection forms a continuous line: without imposing an aesthetic stance, these discs follow a deep yet ineffable continuity of purpose. Each disc is a window, an opening into a singular world: the soul of a place, a common artistic language, or the distinct vision of an artist. ... more
