After having played "Circum Continuum" on several continents from 2016 to 2019, the Auguste quartet returns with a new opus that mixes as well the readings of time, contrasts and atmospheres, as the sound climates. With "Exalta calma" the Auguste invites us to superimpose two antipodes that could suggest us, variable forces animating the interior of a painting, a person and/or even a sound. The music of the quartet does not point to the exhilaration of speed, but rather to the shivering and elasticity of the phrases, which with the arrival of saxophonist Mario Allard, bubbles with life, energy and exultation.
