RELEASE DATE

Two years after having recorded Aurora, which
Gérard Terronès
released on his Futura Records label in 1971, the
Théâtre du Chêne Noir
put on another show,
Miss Madona
, first at Avignon, and then at
Ariane Mnouchkine
's Théâtre du Soleil. From this play,
Gérard Gelas
's group took three sound extracts which they made, with no further ado, into a single.
Miss Madona
is thus the second recording by Théâtre du Chêne Noir. The two sides (and three tracks) offer up an unbelievable instrumental theater with something of a white magic ritual about it. The actors, so much better for the record, were also musicians; alongside
Miss Madona
, ex-star of the circus and now idol, were the piano and electric organ of
Daniel Dublet
, the saxophones of
Pierre Surtel
and
Jean-Louis Canaud
, and the trumpet of
Gilbert Say
. But there are also the vocals of
Beatrice Le Thierry
,
Bénédicte Maulet
,
Jean Paul Chazalon
,
Monik Lamy
,
Nicole Aubiat
... which added to the mystery of what happened on stage. The sound of this particular theater is reminiscent as much of
John Coltrane
as of
Ravi Shankar
,
Pierre Henry
or the
Art Ensemble of Chicago
. There are voices from beyond the grave, inspirational for future musicians:
Steven Stapleton
, for example who included Théâtre du Chêne Noir in his Nurse With Wound List. Souffle Continu re-release this single, which is rare in more ways than one. First ever vinyl reissue. Remastered from the master tapes. Licensed from Le Théâtre du Chêne Noir.
