Noel Nouvelet:

Basically, instead of setting it up like this:

Left Hand = E6, F#6, G6
Right Hand = A6, B6, C#7

Michèle sets it up like this:

Left Hand = F#6, A6, C#7 
(F# on the inside, A6 in the middle, and C#7 on the outside)
Right Hand = E6, B6, G6 
(E6 on the inside, B6 in the middle, and G6 on the outside)

This allows the piece to be damped *chordally*, as a pianist would damp, so as to avoid the run-on "mushiness" that happens a lot with 6iH works.

Kings of Orient:

Set down the 6iH clusters above the row of black notes - Michèle usually puts the RH cluster above C#6 & D#6.

	m. 32-33, set B5\G5.
	m. 34-35, set down the B5 after playing it. Release G5 as you play the E5. Keep E5 as a constant, creating E5/G5 cluster, setting down G5 after the 16th note. Release E5.
	m. 36-37, same as 34-35.
	m. 38, play G5 with RH (and release), keep A5 as a constant, forming A5\C6 cluster.
	m. 39, keep B5 as a constant, forming D6\B5 cluster. Release D6 & C6 after playing, still keeping A5 & B5 as constants.
	m. 40-41, set down G5\B5 cluster as a unit, form A5/F#5 cluster. (Add a slight rubato to smooth the under-hand reach for E5.) During the A5/F#5 fermata, separate the G5xB5 cluster.
	m. 42-45, while playing the G5, create D5/E5 cluster (or, alternatively, you could have formed a E5/D5 cluster in m. 41). Set this down as a unit at the end of m. 45.
	m. 46-50, keep G5 as a constant, forming B5\G5 cluster. Pick up A5 from on top of F#5 & keep it as a constant, forming A5/C6 cluster. Release C6 after playing it. Return the A5 to its home position. You can either keep the B5\G5 together in your hand through m. 48-49, or you can let go of it after table damping it at the beginning of m. 48. If you choose to separate them, you will need to re-form the B5\G5 cluster for m. 52.
	m. 52, start the phrase with your LH. Michèle doesn't play the ending G6, only because she doesn't think the chord sounds "final" with that note added. Your Mileage May Vary!
