This young pianist and composer is dreaming of a musical world without barriers. His work fails to fit any system. He rejects all conventions and escapes from any comparison. After his trilogy (Waamat, Autour de Bartók, Wintsch-Schütz-Hemingway trio), Michel Wintsch is now publishing a new CD. The double project MINIMUM WITAL and ECHOS D'UNE CONVERSATION A INNSBRUCK is an acoustic photography of his work. Minimum Wital (for six instrumentalists, various voices and sounds) takes the listener on an eventful and jubilating musical trip. Michel Wintsch says: "I've been using all conceivable techniques (such as live and studio recordings, digital mounting, sampling, composition, improvisation, words, interviews, sonorous poetry) on one hand and my artistic experience on the other. That way I achieved the kind of music that challenges and amuses me and encourages me to express life as I feel it: ghastly, frightening, ambivalent, beautiful, infinitely complex, sometimes bloody awful and often full of wit." Echos d'une conversation à Innsbruck, for one voice and eight instruments, is about a text from "The black flame" by Marguerite Yourcenar. Michel Wintsch says: "Zenon was an alchemist, a doctor and an atheist. He incessently searched for a consciousness of the world and himself - at a time of obscurantism and religious fanatism. Nowadays, information being submitted to profit, the real problems being suppressed, fanatism mainly being of a materialistic kind, the path towards a consciousness of oneself and the world has become quite thorny, indeed. What I had in mind was to pay tribute to Marguerite Yourcenar's magnificent text by creating a soulful work matching the beautiful voice of Magali Schwartz."
