Chimères (pour Ondes Martenot)
Chimères (pour Ondes Martenot) is the third solo album of Christine Ott. Chimères is an unprecedented album, entirely conceived using only her Ondes Martenot.[1] The album was produced by Paul Régimbeau (Mondkopf) and Frederic D Oberland (Oiseaux-Tempête), who arranged the tracks with the composer by manipulating the sounds of the ondes Martenot via live effect boxes and sonic manipulation.[2] The album is opening with the piece Comma, which is regularly compared to Olivier Messiaen work,[3] and the album is developing eight pieces from contemporary classical to electronic music and avant-garde music, also compared to Sergei Prokofiev and Daniel Lopatin.[4]
