Festival Ravel will present Ravel Ravel Revisited, Anri Sala’s new take on his piece Ravel Ravel Unravel (2013), played by French pianist Bertrand Chamayou.
In 2013, Anri Sala presented the installation Ravel Ravel Unravel at the Venice Biennale, a simultaneous projection of two films of the Concerto for the Left Hand in D Major composed by Maurice Ravel between 1929 and 1931 at the request of pianist Paul Wittgenstein, who had lost his right arm in the First World War. The piece shows the performance of the same piece of music by two musicians, Franco-Canadian pianist Louis Lortie and French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet. Their music, at first synchronous, becomes an echo, then a doubling, merging again, only to
come apart once more.
Anri Sala, French pianist Bertrand Chamayou and French sound designer Olivier Goinard have joined forces to present Ravel Ravel Revisited, a new version of this piece on two pianos.
In collaboration with Studio Anri Sala, Steinway & Sons and The Bourse de Commerce Pinault Collection.
