“At once exhilarating and contrasting”: watch Colin Currie Group’s Paris performances online now

Colin Currie Group’s performances in early December at the Louis Vuitton Fondation, described as “exhilarating and contrasting” by Musikzen, are available to watch online for free on Arte.tv.

The Group gave three performances on 2 and 3 December including two new pieces in their repertoire, Pulse and Proverb, as well as Quartet, Drumming and more. Visit Arte.tv to watch the performances now.

Read the reviews for the Group’s residency:

“The implacable sound of the bongos mixes with the visual ballet… the marimbas answer each other in a sonorous halo where all the parameters of the sound intertwine and mix: rhythm, melody, timbre, texture.”

“At once exhilarating and contrasting, Drumming’s interpretation by Colin Currie and his ensemble differs from the performances known until now: the British still more vigorously characterize their solo playing, reinforcing the dizzying dynamics of the work, to the point that there emerges a feeling of intense nervousness.”
Musikzen, December 2017
