MICHEL TREGANPRESTO / DA CAPOImages of the Russian composer are rare. Igor Stravinski was born in 1882and died in New York in 1992. The self-taught disciple of Nikolaï Rimsky-Korsakov shook the musical world with the Rite of Spring in 1913. He leda parallel life to that of the cinema. Janos Darvos rifles through the archivesand presents something that is indifferent to chronology. He brings hischaracter to life and surrounds him with some famous celebrities: Debussy,Cocteau and Boulez. There is also a rare face-to-face meeting with AlbertoGiacometti in Paris. Stravinsky does not give much away, he intervenes nowand again, notably on the subject of his detractors : “They say ’Too muchnoise’ and I reply ’Where exactly’?” Going from one country to another, fromthe writing of a score to a rehearsal session, he states that he prefers theact of composing to music itself. Janos Darvos assembles a film andestablishes a portrait from a collection of scattered fragments.DAVID, MOFFETT AND ORNETTEréalisé par / directeb by DICK FONTAINEPRESTO / DA CAPODe passage à Paris, Ornette Coleman au saxophone, Charles Moffett auxpercussions et David Izenzon à la contrebasse enregistrent la musique d’unfilm de Tom White interprété par le Living Theatre Company et intitulé Who’sCrazy ?
