Trio SR9

This programme offers a sensory and poetic exploration of musical material, conceived as a living continuum in which works respond to one another, transform and extend. A thread stretched between distinct compositional styles, each representing a different way of inhabiting sound, making it resonate and conveying it. Sensibilities united by a shared desire: to traverse time.

Through reinterpretations of works by Johann Sebastian Bach and Erik Satie, alongside Philip Glass’s iconic Études, juxtaposed with an original composition by the SR9 Trio, a unique sonic identity emerges. From one era to the next, from one aesthetic to the next, the works engage in dialogue, unfold and reveal a perceptible continuity.

CONTINUUM is an invitation to let oneself be carried away by the music, to hear what connects—in the space between the notes, in the resonances and vibrations. Like an unbroken line, a space of passage where legacies are transformed and where each sound opens up a new sonic horizon.

Revisited here through percussion keyboards and other percussive textures, this repertoire opens up to new textures and new spaces for listening. Timbres shift, musical lines reinvent themselves, extending this interplay of connections within a renewed sonic fabric. A spellbinding concert, offering an experience that is as much auditory as it is visual.
