about
"Invocation Nocturne", 2015, Jonathan Oberlander
Pièce acousmatique inspirée par deux poètes séparés de presque deux millénaires : Baudelaire et Ovide, connus pour leur pratique respectives de la poésie romantique et didactique. Il s'agit de cinq variations issue du thème de l'amour sensuel, invoqué en esprit dans l'ombre de l'intimité. Ma composition s'articule autour de séquences de frottements faisant rejaillir les harmoniques des corps sonores sur lesquels elles jouent.
Le corps se sait désiré, séduit, fait frémir, basculer dans l'attente et la souffrance. Les sensations tournent et se fondent dans l'air de la nuit.
« Le meilleur adjuvant de l'âme est celui qui brise
Une fois pour toutes les chaînes douloureuses qui brident le cœur. »
[Ovide, Remedia amoris, v. 293-294]
"Invocation Nocturne" a été composé dans mon studio personnel à Bagnolet en Mars et Avril 2015. Les sons ont été enregistrés au CRR de Paris en février 2015.

"Invocation Nocturne", 2015, Jonathan Oberlander
"Incovation Nocturne" is an acousmatic piece inspired by two poets separated of almost two millennia : Baudelaire and Ovid, respectively known for their practice of romantic and didactic poetry. Five variations on the theme of sensual love, invoked in spirit in the shadow of intimacy. The composition articulates around sequences of frictions which reveal the harmonics of the "sonic body" on which they play.
The body feels desired, seduced, thrilled and swings into longing and suffering. The sensations spin and fade into the night air.
"The best builder of the soul is the one who breaks
Once for all the painful chains that hold back the heart. "
[Ovid, Remedia amoris , v . 293-294]
"Invocation Nocturne" was composed at my personal studio in Bagnolet during March and April 2015. Sounds were recorded at CRR de Paris in February 2015.
