*
Première du grand orchestre d'UN DRAME MUSICAL INSTANTANÉ
recorded live by Daniel Deshays
assistant Julien Cloquet
November 13 1981 at Studio Berthelot, Montreuil

La lettre is a piece for mezzo-soprano, violin and orchestra.
Le Malheur and Le Grand Jeu were the two first movements of an ensemble with La Preuve par le Grand Huit (already issued on album A travail égal salaire égal) being the third and last.
Members of the orchestra (Jouk Minor, Geneviève Cabannes, Youenn Le Berre, Hélène Sage, Kent Carter...) composed the Concerto de l'ordre with the trio improvising over it.
That same night Un d.m.i. also played Les trois singes which later became Révolutions (album Les bons contes font les bons amis).
