Marie Ythier - Le geste augmenté for Cello Solo & Electronics (Transaural & Binaural Versions) (2015) [24/48]

This work - featuring unique, innovative, intense and poetic pieces - showcases young contemporary creation. This is the magical encounter between performer and composer. Purely innovative, this project is the first binaural and transaural versions of works for solo instrument and real-time electronic marketed worldwide. This is the finest way to recreate live music experience. Classical musician, but also eager to foster and premiere works by composers of her generation, the cellist Marie Ythier can already boast two recordings, that include the one of the Denisov Duo (Meyer foundation, 2014), and Le geste augmenté for cello solo and live electronics, featuring works exclusively written for her and dedicated to her (Evidence classics, Harmonia Mundi, November 2015). Trained at the Paris and Lyon conservatoires, she regularly performs in prestigious venues and festivals in France and abroad (Paris Philharmonie, Dijon Auditorium. Kuhmo Festival, FIMC Lima, Suona Francese/ Suona Italiano, the Messiaen festival, KKL Lucerne…). She often collaborates with English, Italian and German ensembles and has played as a soloist under the direction of renowned conductors, including Pierre Boulez and Peter Csaba.
