Analytical Approches to Tauriphanie dans Voyage Absolu des Unari vers Andromède by Iannis Xenakis
Résumé
The analytical research of this chapter concerns this last period and takes as its support two emblematic works, rarely presented and analyzed: Taurhiphanie (1987) and the Voyage absolu des Unari vers Andromède (1989). The difficulty in finding sources, the very important difference between concert versions and those published on CD, but also the technical context of their production or the surprising strangeness of their sound and musical rendering make it an exciting field of research for the musicologist. I will show that these characteristics are obviously strongly linked to the UPIC, the instrument on which Xenakis worked both as a designer and as a user for the composition of these works.
