Musiche di Fred Frith composte nel più tremendo periodo dell'emergenza Covid con uno sguardo al cielo californiano ancora memore dei terribili incendi del 2020: insolite anche ai propri occhi ('Quite unlike anything I've ever written'), eseguite da un ensemble francese di soli sassofoni, tromba e tromboni (Kill Your Idols), registrate in studio prima e dopo la sola e tuttora unica presentazione in concerto al Festival Météo di Mulhouse il 26 agosto 2021. Sono su Bandcamp: Orange Skies (l'envol ne finit jamais).

"Orange Skies (l’envol ne finit jamais) was commissioned in 2020 by l'association pépète lumière in partnership with the Festival Météo in Mulhouse, France and DRAC/Aide Ecriture. It was premiered at the Festival Météo on August 26, 2021. The recordings that make up this version were recorded in advance of the rehearsals for this performance and shortly afterwards. It was never performed again. I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the musicians of Kill Your Idols for their commitment to this music, which was far from their usual way of working!"
