Description

Tellurythme – Laurent Jacquier

Score for five percussion ensemble.

The piece is articulated around two contrasting parts, first of all by the instrumentation – the first putting forward the keyboards (marimbas) and the second the skins – but also by their own characters.

After a brief introduction, from which the pulsation gradually emerges, the theme settles on the marimba, on an irregular pulsation, evoking a slightly “broken down” music box.

The second part, much more ” terrestrial », hence the title « Tellurythme » is based on a ternary ostinato given first to the tom bass, around which the interventions of the other percussionists are organized, which, mixing binary and ternary, skins and voice, create a certain rhythmic ambiguity.

After a reminder of the theme of the first part (on the marimba), the ostinato returns for a great final crescendo, a great gong strike concluding the piece.
