Auditorium des Halles (Paris) 1987
Line up: Christoph Harbonnier, Serge Leroy, Christian Wittman,
with the Popdreams Dance company on stage.
The Auditorium des Halles is a famous classical music concert hall in central
Paris. With Lightwave's concert, electronic music entered this prestigious
venue for the first time. This unique concert was sequence-oriented: most
of the sequences were programmed and controlled live by Serge with all his
Modular equipment, his analog equipment and also the MDB Polysequencer (one
of the first digital sequencers), which had been used extensively by
Jean-Michel Jarre during his concerts in China. This concert was a step
toward our concept of an electronic chamber music ensemble, and some of our
pieces had a classical color. The dancers of Popdreams, specialized in
slow-motion dance, added a surrealistic touch to the performance, moving
across the stage as astronauts walking on the moon.
The audience's reaction was very positive.
