A Minimalistic Sleepless Night

Live music & concerts

Last updated date : 28/06/2025

The Music of Aphex Twin, P. Glass, Satie and others

Email Site web Booking
A sleepless night at La Trinité in the company of Glass, Satie, Alice Coltrane, Aphex Twin, Morton Feldman and so many other minimalist composers, famous or not, who have made the genre noble. This is what François Mardirossian, an insomniac pianist, offers you. He's sharp but relaxed, and has always been enchanted by this music. A twelve-hour nocturnal marathon (with breaks) to immerse yourself in the intoxicating meanderings of repetition. Ideal for brushing up on the classics, discovering nuggets... and taking a little nap anyway.
