Double - Sylvain Rifflet

i. Double 1
ii. Double 2
iii. Double 3
iv. Double 4
v. Double 5

Double: 2 tenor saxopnones, 2 traditions, 2 sides? The 2 instruments call each other through the sound space. From shadow to dialogue, from harmony to fight, the saxophone questions its duality. Two sides of one sound are mixed or opposed in a music composed for this purpose. A classical and a jazz saxophone player present a new repertoire, built on the multiple natures of their instrument. Their music explores various languages, from canonic and repetitive idioms to an intimate exploration of the saxophone sound abilities. Simple sound and electronic devices allow them to invite the audience inside their exploration.
