Rather failing in originality than succeeding in imitation

Niibori guitar orchestra

Programme notes

The word concerto is understood in its Latin etymological sense of ‘to collaborate’. This music composition is a spontaneous organized wireless dialogue in real time that abolishes any hierarchy between conductor and players as well as between players, that stimulates the inventiveness and creative ownership of all the participating performers, that enables the audience to create their music.
