"Messagesquisse" (Pierre Boulez) au CNR Paris

[obiot]

Beautiful interpretation of this rather difficult serial work. It is full of musical references to Sacher: the 6 notes from the opening, the Morse code 'col legno', the serial progressions.

[NitramZiarreh]

@obiot "Messagesquisse" is not a serial work per se, but other than that you're right.

[miker2001]

I think they rushed it.

[lackogti]

This has to be the soundtrack of an horor movie!

[Niys38]

onclevanja : Boulez is absolutly not a néo-classique composer !

[lambicframbroise]

This piece is 100% awesome!

[Xanekros]

Wonderful! Thanks, usually I don't like very much Boulez but this work is amazing!

[gyermekkenek]

I don't understand how such a beautiful piece of music can generate so much hate...

[MusicaRicercata]

Dumb people remain dumb.

[alaincasaville]

Anyone who TRULY loves this piece should be instantly executed.

[Atael]

Wonderful!!!!!!!!

[OMaclac]

Je ne sais pas si "Messagesquisse" est une œuvre mineure ou essentielle de Boulez. Mais, en tout cas, elle me plaît beaucoup.

[alaincasaville]

Messagesquisse can be safely deleted from Boulez's oeuvre list, as it is his worst piece.

What should be restored is his Polyphonie X.

[onclevanja]

Why is all contemporary french music so boring? Is it because this man (Boulez) has had so much power and put his conservative neo-classisist grip on everything the last years? What happened to revolutionary France?!

[ensembleinter]

I don't think this piece is boring. You seem to be very upset by Boulez. Anyway there are so many composers in France and elsewhere that creation is still living here and there. Just listen to your time beyond the common ideas.

[Apalexpe]

That was a great response to such unneccesary question.

[DannyDaWriter]

Boulez is a neo-classisist? Can I have what you're smoking?

[MusicaRicercata]

...you're calling Boulez a neo-classicist?

[vinomazzei]

@onclevanja There are so many things wrong with the above comment... Plz 2b stop critiquing contemporary music.

[PSearPianist]

Thank you for making this video of such a gripping piece available. Contemporary music needs to be seen and not just heard.
