« Phonographies » is a recording series by ensemble code, led by Jérémie Arcache and Leonardo Ortega, in which classical repertoire, contemporary orchestral music and actual music meet.
Each Phonographie is a disc of instrumental music based on a work chosen from the classical repertoire for a soloist instrument. With the orchestra and their guests, the duo of arrangers explores the original score, deconstructing it and developing a new musical imagination around it. In this way, each disc is made up of three instrumental pieces, forming a journey in three movements that follow one another like metamorphoses of the same work:
Movement I ⇢ The original work is recorded by the soloist
Movement II ⇢ The work is rewritten and reinterpreted by orchestra
Movement III ⇢ Electronic piece based on the preceding movements
