Scattered notes seem to stretch time, their repetition and countless combinations evoking (or invoking?) the infinite iridescence of light that accompanies dawn — a ritual as inevitable as it is unpredictable. With his Musique pour le lever du jour, composed over two years and completed in 2017, Melaine Dalibert once described his aim as creating “an infinite piece,” without beginning or end. Subtle, intangible, both complex and minimal, the variations forming this hour-long composition — dedicated to Belgian pianist Stéphane Ginsburgh — allowed silence and resonance to blossom into shades of color.
Released on the American label Elsewhere Music, led by Yuko Zama, the album was ranked among France Musique’s 100 best of 2018.
