01. L’Afrique d’apres Tiepolo pour piano principal et ensemble instrumental
02. L’Asie d’apres Tiepolo pour ensemble
Tiepolo painted the immense vaulted ceiling and “Staircase of Honour” in the Würzburg Residenz in 1752 and 1753. He depicted Olympus and the Four Continents and these compositions are based on Tiepolo’s images. Dufourt’s music is the “composition of sound”, but it does not celebrate sound in a cloistered-off reserve.
