Why played it so fast? I mean, it goes really quick, even sometimes the narration can't be discernible... The tempo is not correct from my point of view.
First heard Toucher from an album titled Gravity. The only CD with Globokar's participation in my university: "La Pontificia Pulentard". I feel some much pleasure with the pronouncement, "Galilei" timing, almost like a fine salchicha.
Greetings from Chile, keep hitting stuff with such sense.
I remember your performance of this piece, as well as a few other pieces which you have also posted, at ASU a year or two ago. These videos are invaluable to the percussion world. Thanks for posting great performances of the music of all of these great composers.
Yes, it is indeed in french. It is a translation of the Bertolt Brecht play "The Life of Galileo" and tells the story of his ill-fated discovery regarding the earth and the sun. The composer is Globokar. There are around 18 different characters involved in the 6 scenes (after each scene as a brief musical interlude on one instrument). Glad you liked it! It is a lot of fun to perform.
that person whispering at 5:28 really freaked me out..
