100 CYMBALS, Ryoji Ikeda / John Cage

Launch evening of the Musica Festival 2020

With 100 Cymbals, by Ryoji Ikeda, a dive into the abyss of vibration. A unique listening experience in the oversized space of the Rhine Hall. The concert will open with the sound portrait that John Cage dedicated to Hans Arp from Strasbourg and offered to Les Percussions de Strasbourg in 1986, where the musical language is reduced to five typographical signs. A minimal work, made of environmental rustling, which in the same way as 100 Cymbals, solicits a deep listening.
