"We intensively continue our unclassical program. We were the first in the early 90s to publish Morton Feldman, Giacinto Scelsi, Marcel Duchamp and young European composers as Jean-Luc Fachamps and Thierry Demy. Choree is the first record of the young Belgian composer Renaud De Putter -- what we present here is 3 pieces for piano (performed by Stephane Ginsburge). We are here far away either from the neo-classical trends and from the new post-serial academism -- it is really a quite free method of composition -- very rhizomatic, and strong in its realization. Included in this production: a multi-media aspect (CD ROM) -- 5 films from 1904 by the Belgian neurolog (and pioneer of the scientific film!) Arthur van Gehuchten. In the very early part of this century he decided to film his patients (who had strong neurotic problems) after seeing the first projection of the Lumiére brother in Brussels. The result is more than 200 short scientific films. Renaud de Putter was very impressed by them and decided to compose short piano piece on them. Strong!"
