Work of art? Musical instrument? Piano lipogram?
Tal Isaac Hadad reverses the traditional proposition of an universal
instrument made to interpret any musical repertoire, and presents a piano
with 3 keys. Here it’s the music score which produces the instrument,
adapting the 2nd
movement of Musica Ricercata (1953) by Gyorgi Ligeti.
Tal Isaac Hadad as Gyorgi Ligeti, explores the possibilities of an economy of
means taken to the extreme. The Salon de Musique brings the public within
a contained space holding the intensity of the music, literally described by
its composer as “knife stabbing in the heart of Stalin”.
It gather selections of musical programs on the irst piano of a collection of
11 instruments created according to the 11 movements of the Musica
Ricercata. FIAC 2011, Auditorium du Grand Palais, Paris.
