"French composer Alain Bancquart (b.l 934) is one of the leading composers of microtonal music in Europe. Labyrinthe du Minotaur explores the myth of the Minotaur and the labyrinth. This large scale piece constantly delves into microtonal and harmonic relationships along with a lyrical polyphony. It is based on texts by his wife, author Marie-Claire Bancquart. The ensemble is comprised of leading European performers including PierreYves Artaud (flute), Pascal Galloi (bassoon), Carol Robinson (clarinet), vocal ensemble Voxnova, Martine Joste (piano), Gerard Pape (sound-projection), Nicholas Isherwood (bass), and Roland Auzet (cymbalum), among others."
