In connection with the exhibit "Un art pauvre" at the Centre Pompidou

The quintet with piano is a formation associated with Romanticism. When Marco Momi uses this formation, it is to imagine active and affective interaction with a new way of making instruments, where electronics are absorbed in the instrument's very body. Technology is no longer explicitly exposed. This concert is placed under the protection of the nocturne, that of the oscuro, so dear to Sciarrino, that of Aloysius Bertrand's poems and demons, magnified by Ravel in Gaspard de la Nuit.
