Spring 2020: The fight against coronavirus brought all concerts to a halt for musicians. Among the various initiatives that rapidly flourished, here are Benjamin Righetti's "Flowers of degrowth", recorded on the Organ of Saint-François in Lausanne.
From March to May 2020, in this period of enforced degrowth that left him more time for his personal work, he recorded 25 works, more than 2 hours of music halfway between live and studio work. Forced to do his own recording, he chose to make one-shot music videos, as fixed shots. Working without video editing, with a camera filming continuously, two microphones and his Nagra, he sought both to simplify the technical work in order to produce these clips in a short time, and also to offer the listeners the purest possible experience, as close as possible to a concert, at a time when video was no longer an alternative to the latter, but a substitute.

Whereas CDs are usually recorded in the middle of the night in downtown churches and noise is avoided during editing, these videos were shot during the day. Here and there you can hear street traffic or the noise of a passer-by, and you can even hear the bells ringing, just like during concerts. In a quest not for some elusive perfection but rather for true sincere gestures that connect us and speak to the listeners as directly as possible right behind the microphones, may these recordings be a witness to this period of degrowth and may they remind us that artistic creation thrives on calm and free time.
