The concerts took place in Lille swimming pool (France, summer 2004).

Glass instruments are played by French multi-instrumentalist virtuoso Thomas Bloch (glassharmonica, cristal Baschet, ondes Martenot) and electronic devices and sounds transformation by Michel Redolfi. The audience listened to different music inside and outside the water.
