These small notated fragments are a kind of " prolific material". They can be used in several ways: combination, permutation, inversion and so forth, in the same way a sculptor manipulate his materials. Gianni showed to musicians the general gist of the composition and through the process of rehearsal and human relationship the group went to a kind of "structure" with sections, musical figures and gestures, signals and orchestration.

(Mal Waldron) Hocus_Pocus Improvisers Orchestra: The Hocus_Pocus Improvisers Orchestra explores the relationships between improvisation and musical writing in its various forms, including the use of graphic scores, traditional&alternative notations, game pieces and conduction.

De simples fragments notés comme point de départ pour s'élancer dans l'improvisation. Ces fragments sont une sorte de matériel pret à proliferer. Ils peuvent être utilisés de divers manières, combinaison, permutation, inversion et ainsi de suite, un peu comme un sculpteur manipule sa matière première. Gianni montre aux musiciens les condition général et essentiel de la composition et au travers du processus de répetion et de relation humaine le groupe aboutit à une sorte de "structure", avec des parties, des figures et gestes musicaux, des signaux et orchestrations. "Epuisez ce que vous avez jusqu'au bout, puis changer de coin." (Mal Waldron) Hocus_Pocus Improvisers Orchestra: L'Hocus_Pocus Improvisers Orchestra explore les relations entre improvisation et musique écrite de formes diverses, partitions graphiques, notations traditionnelles ou alternatives, jeux et direction.
