XAVIER LE ROY (FR)
LE SACRE DU PRINTEMPS

Inspired by a clip of Sir Simon Rattle rehearsing with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra in the film Rhythm is it! Xavier Le Roy became interested in Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du Printemps. He studied Rattle’s interpretation comprehensively as though it was an autonomous choreography. In the process cause and effect were reversed: the conductor’s gestures and movements, essentially meant to synchronise the musicians, appear to originate from the music itself.
