Listening to Carol Robinson and Louis-Michel Marion

Sound Portraits 06.06.2022

Louis-Michel Marion and even more so Carol Robinson are long-time accomplices of the composer Éliane Radigue, who has dedicated several works to them. This third Rencontre sonore of the Musique action #38 allows us to discuss with them this very special music, its transmission methods, the way they play it, their mental preparation, their intimate working relationship with the composer. The two musicians tell us about the different works that have marked their journey and inspired them, and from which this sound portrait takes selected moments.
The entirety of their playlist can be found below.
