Grande fugue
Upright piano, copper wire, magnets, amplifier and audio player
2007 · Salle Crosnier — Genève (CH)
An upright piano whose strings have been prepared with copper wires and magnets. Using the operating principle of a loudspeaker, the entire set of strings reproduces the sound of the ocean through subtle vibrations. Each register responds differently to the shifting textures and timbres of the waves.
