MARC CHOUARAIN
Multi-instrumentalist and collector of rare instruments, Marc Chouarain began his classical piano training at the age of 6, then won his first prize at 11 years old. He is a sought-after sideman for a lot of renowned artists: Benjamin Biolay, Keren Ann, Raphaël, Woodkid, Danny Elfman, Orelsan, and Booba to name a few.
In 2004 he wrote his first movie score for L’Amour aux trousses by Philippe de Chauveron, with whom a fruitful collaboration begun: Ducoboo and Serial (Bad) Weddings among the highest successes in French theaters over the last 10 years (almost 20 million admissions in France).
Marc Chouarain then collaborated with various directors such as Katia Lewkowicz, Jan Kounen and Isabella Rossellini. Owner of one of the largest Theremin collections in the world, Marc Chouarain is fond of using rare instruments that bring unique color to his music. Mélanie Laurent, charmed by his approach, asked him to write the score of her first film Breathe and in 2018 for Galveston (starring Elle Fanning and Ben Foster). For the latter, Marc created a very atmospheric music relying on the use of Cristal Baschet.

CRISTAL BASCHET (from wikipedia)
The Cristal Baschet is a contemporary musical instrument developed in 1952 by the brothers Bernard and François Baschet. Models of the crystal organs range from 3.5 to 6 octaves and are made of 56 chromatically tuned glass rods. To play it, musicians rub the rods with wet fingertips.[1]
OPERATION
Metal rods are embedded in a heavy plate to form the elements. Each metal rod is accompanied by an attached glass rod. The metal rod's length, weight and position at the equilibrium point determine the sound's pitch. The glass rod is gently stroked with a wet finger to produce sound.
The vibration of the rod with greater amplitude and weaker pressure is transmitted into the metal fitting. This causes a transformation in the vibrations and the shape of the wave produced. The vibrations propagating through the metal have a high pressure and a weak amplitude. This amplification in pressure is the result of fiberglass cones that are fixed in a wood frame alongside a tall, cut-out metal part in the shape of a flame. "Whiskers," placed on the side of the instrument, amplify high-pitched sounds.
The Cristal Baschet is also known as the Crystal Organ and the Crystal Baschet. The range of a concert instrument is five octaves. The Cristal is related to the glass harmonica.
HISTORY
The Cristal Baschet was invented in 1952 by the French instrument makers and artists Bernard and Francois Baschet. They specialized in creating sculptures that could be played to produce music. They invented the inflatable guitar, an aluminum piano and an "educational instrumentarium" for the purpose of giving young people exposure to musical concepts.
