Roxane Métayer works with many small things to create integrated wholes. Violin, woodwinds, effects and her voice are used in pieces in which sounds seem to float freely in space. What draws them together and makes them vibrate with each other are the guiding ideas of the French composer-performer, who alternately takes folk, minimal music, Fourth World borrowings or electro-acoustic music as her compositional starting point. Her journeys seem predetermined, but only Métayer knows in which direction she is taking the music. Those who follow her are in for a plethora of surprises.
