Dissonance

For hybridation, for the love of sound

The Swiss French collectives of experimental improvised music

Antonin Servière
This text is the result of Antonin Servière’s enquiry into the French part of Switzerland: several collectives (Insubordinations, Matka, Rue du Nord, Vortex) gather composers and performers and form several hubs defending a both unorthodox and avantgardist view of musical condition, with an accent on “sound”, electro-acoustics, and improvisation. Servière engages into these universes so as to unearth, in a first pioneering gesture, their singularities.
