Sylvain Chauveau - ultra minimal (exhibition opening)

Official opening of exhibition of graphic scores, with an introduction by the artist at 18h.

“Classical music notation from Western countries is used only by a minority of musicians around the world. There are other ways to explain compositions to performers. One of them is to create scores with an original, personal way of giving instructions: visually, or just verbally, or both. They are sometimes called graphic scores.



I’ve been writing graphic scores since 2007. My notations usually give an almost complete freedom to the performers. They are meant to be a source of inspiration for instrument players, driven by a picture or a few words. They could be seen as just a drawing, or a collage, or a graphic creation. But they are musical scores: an invitation for other musicians to perform a piece of music inspired by this notation, as they imagine it should be.



The selection made for this exhibition collects scores on transparent papers from the years 2014-2015.” — Sylvain Chauveau

Sylvain Chauveau @ mi - so (Berlin, DE)

To celebrate two record releases on Sonic Pieces we´re very happy to host French ultra-minimal artist Sylvain Chauveau to perform in our store. This will also be Sylvain´s first ever solo performance in Berlin, believe it or not. Chauveau has been caving his way in the contemporary classical and minimal electro-acoustic scene since the early 2000s, parallel to artists such as Max Richter and Jóhann Jóhannson and released on labels such as Fat Cat, Type, Sub Rosa and Flau. His most recent album ultra-minimal just came out on Sonic Pieces next to a re-issue of his debut album Le livre noir du capitalisme. Sylvain is taking the trek all the way from Barcelona for a long weekend at mi - so, including an art opening and two concerts. This is a highly unique chance to catch him perform in town.

Sylvain will be performing minimal pieces from his last album on guitar and harmonium. Watch a video of him performing the composition "mi" taken from ultra-minimal.

We will be taking a minimum of 15€ donation for these concerts.  
LTD to 15 seats pr gig. Reservation only (Max 2 seats pr. reservation!)
Doors open half an hour before concert.
