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