Like Buckminster Fuller, reversible sweaters, or Mr. Potato Head, Ensemble Pamplemousse's Blocks Tour is a rearrangeable construction of elements. Prefab modules by the six composers are reconfigured each night of the tour into new structures of sonic architecture. As each block maintains its own internal logic, the listener is pulled forward through the linear unfolding of time. Intertwining patterns of material emerge and dissolve, connect, obstruct, and confer with each other, unveiling new angles of hearing each sonic unit.
