The Tangent – Le Sacre du Travail (2013)

Front_1

“It is the most ambitious album we’ve attempted yet” says Tillison, “our first ever full on concept album which is also our deepest foray into the world of classical/orchestral music that we’ve hinted at before in songs like “Titanic Calls Carpathia”, “The Full Gamut” and “In Earnest” It’s great to know we’ll be staying with the company that’s done us so much good over the years, we need their belief as much as ever.”


The single piece is comprised of 3 main movements with a short Overture/Prologue type piece and clocks in (in its current working state) at just less than an hour. The piece has been projected for a good number of years and originally was to have been a direct re-interpretation of Igor Stravinsky’s The Rite Of Spring. The piece is lyrically based around a modern ritual in the same way as was The Rite Of Spring. This time, rather than the pastoral Russian landscape that Stravinsky references in his piece, Le Sacre Du Travail focusses on the daily run to work and back that so many billions of people in wealthier countries make in order to maintain a life standard. From the unseen moment where dawn breaks on a wet wintry Tuesday morning on a lonely country road, through the chaos of modern urban traffic, pointless meetings, clocking in, locker rooms, appraisals, boredom, pressure as far as Evening TV and a nightcap before it all starts again, this piece has something to say for most people involved in that ritual. As usual, real, contemporary, no holds barred, gritty writing.
