CREC (“Cave” in Bearnese Occitan language) is an open music work imagined and created by the band ARTÚS.
It is a musical metaphor for a ramble in the mountain, along a torrent and across six locations, each of them with its own specific rules. Numerous random and improvised parameters ensure a large variety of forms.
