This sound installation, performed in the Saint-Eustache Church, is the product of a commission Huysman received from the parish’s former priest. Huysman met eight mothers of children with AIDS under a program that encourages artists to create works of ‘public utility’ on behalf of ordinary people with problems. Les Constellations shares the mothers’ confidences in three movements: whispers, the song “with the wrung neck” and the speaking walls.

Das atmende Klarsein marked the last of Luigi Nono's different styles. In it, the Venetian master exalts the demise of our certainties, a way new of listening, made up of silences and fragile, unique sounds, and an attention to space and the possible. A possible which is always going somewhere and in which song equates to the existence.

Clara Iannotta's project is to listen to the city and its various life-forms, in a space, that of a church, which a priori preserves those inside from the noises outside. She does so by means of an electronic installation designed for the acoustics of the Church of Saint-Eustache, a building with a rich musical tradition, ranging from from Rameau to Berlioz.
