The Australian Liza Lim and the German Enno Poppe, two composers with musical imaginations located at polar opposites, are brought together here by the Ensemble intercontemporain under the direction of the second.

Liza Lim's music is inhabited by the spiritual and its great schemes. Born in Australia to Chinese parents, she draws her inspiration indiscriminately from European, Asian and Aboriginal mythologies. Composed in 2000 for the Ensemble intercontemporain, Spirit Weapon focuses on the weapons found in the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, who lived more than 24 centuries ago in China. For her new piece for harp, oboe and ensemble, she turns her attention to the Sufi thought of Jelaluddin Rumi (1207-1273). As for Enno Poppe, a long-time traveling companion of the EIC, his work is also preoccupied with ritual, even if the mechanics of it often go haywire, allowing the composer to “unearth surprises”.
