Banlieue cuivr\u00e9e. Suburb brass. Crumbled concrete. The matter fragmentation, its chaos and energy, counterpoised to its implacable, pure and monolithic immobility. The cement shifted through the metal and the leather. The expression “banlieue cuivr\u00e9e”<\/em> comes from the will to represent the life of a cement magma with its morphed and dynamics fluctuations, its slackening and but also with its static poses sublimated in the urban architectonic context. Hence concrete. A specific matter. A “fact” surrounding our daily space. A rigid corporeality but that comes in liquid form. Concrete. Suburb. Banlieue. The colour grey. The composition has been built using exclusively concrete samples of metallophones and membranophones instruments. Brass is the dominant metal colour in the musical context, hence the second French term cuivr\u00e9e<\/em>. To this light a copper mass, alternating its breath in different ontological sound statuses, is the resulting terminological syntaxes.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n Born in Perugia, Nicola Fumo Frattegiani<\/strong> graduated from D.A.M.S.
