Ilmar Laaban gets the final words/
Ilmar Laaban a le dernier mot :
” Att leva för att upptäcka vågornas hjärta –
att leva fritt eller dö “
” To live to discover the heart of the waves –
To live freely or die “
” Vivre pour découvrir le coeur des vagues –
Vivre libre ou mourir. “
Mats Gustafsson tire de bouillantes Choses de son pavillon, clame des imprécations comme « Fire! » et reste capable de forger un son à faire valser Vulcain. Suédois, collectionneur de vinyles et animateur de la scène Free, fraction incendiaire, ce saxophoniste souffle une musique physique autant que mystique.
Mats Gustafsson boils Things from his instrument, shouts imprecations like “Fire!” and is still able to forge a sound that makes Vulcan waltz. Swedish, vinyl collector and host of the Free scene, an incendiary fraction, this saxophonist blows a physical as well as mystical music.
