The title Dialogues de l'ombre double is from Paul Claudel's play Le Soulier de Satin, a drama that tells the story of an impossible love and explores the dialogues between earthly and heavenly characters. The piece was written in 1985 by Pierre Boulez on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of another great composer, Luciano Berio, and is presented here in its original version for clarinet and magnetic tape. Also, from France comes to us an early piece by Gérard Grisey that includes excerpts with multiphonic sounds - two simultaneous sounds produced by a single wind instrument. Hugo Vasco Reis and João Pedro Oliveira, prominent figures in Portuguese composition, also explore the dialogues between instrumental and electronic dance music.
