Nurse With Wound, Tristan Tzara

Tristan Tzara (1896-1963) is the poet through whom Dada arrived. In Zurich, he animated the Cabaret Voltaire with Hugo Ball; in Paris, he then inspired some surrealists in the making. If he was a great lover of Villon and Rabelais, his poetry is as iconoclastic as the music of Nurse With Wound, who composed for this edition of Minuits pour géants an unpublished piece lasting about ten minutes: On the Edge of the Outside. Writer, poet and essayist of Romanian origin, Tristan Tzara (Samuel Rosenstock, 1896-1963) is one of the founders and the main representative of the Dada movement. A British music project formed in 1978 by Steven Stapleton, John Fothergill and Heman Pathak, Nurse With Wound is an essential figure of experimental and industrial music.
