CHANTS INTIMES
50′ – 2008
solo music
Chants intimes cycle
Each piece is a thought, a feeling, a state, an affection … A moment suspended in the life of each being / instrument. Emotions, intuitions that spring forth, dazzling, or stretch in their dreamy slowness. Inner dialogue, speech drowning in silence, song of joy, cry of pain, prayer or thrill. Without narration, without history, it is the source, the extreme feeling force that the music tries to bring closer.
