And so org…
These are only a few registers of my new big organ, the keyboard to play the world. Switching from old chorales to ship-horns, from animals’ organs to new attack technologies, my fingers mellotronomize and hammond everything they find. Depending on the fusion temperature, they score restless lands, people, foods, toys, clothes, gods, deejays, stones, rolling hearts, telephone-boxes, boxes, smiles, davises, miles, rain, cold rain, coltranes, cool trains, europes and asias, cartoons, car-tongues, can-tell-whys, bees, bee-the-veins, beethovens, all the waters (but also all the rogers)…
More simply… they organ.
A work for radio where the organ in all its expressions is the main protagonist. A keyboard transforming into organ everything it finds and discovers.
