The request for space “Space is a doubt: I must constantly mark it, designate it; it is never mine, it is never given to me,I must conquer it. » For Pérec, permanence conditions the test of space; conversely, our musicians derive a place from space. Space is given to them; the place to invent. Physically, no music without space, a condition for the propagation of
waves. On the organological level, three instruments generate three distinct spaces whose fusion is only one option. No instrument without a story, finally, an additional dimension that hollows out a background revealed by the blow struck on the stretched surface of an ancient timpani, the reawakening echo of a trumpet on the slopes, the striking of amuffled cord, its crunch under the horsehair. So many stories, so many "species of spaces" that are by no meansquestion of appropriating, but of confronting, of pooling; not so much to orient, rather to explore, byfollowing the trajectory of the events that were aroused there. Moreover, space is, better than time: duration. All here is only emergence, precarious maintenance, disappearance. All art is delicacy.
