In return, and paradoxically, these give a sense and a life to the sound forms themselves. Thus, a specific form of discourse is borne of the simultaneous and successive perception of all these planes, trajectories and centres transmitting distinct sounds into the air. At the concert, the listener, taking the place of the standard 'mix' becomes a kind of active and strategic receiver of the elements making up the masterwork…"
