Program note

Bouchara se veut une longue chanson d’amour… le texte entier est une langue inventée, une langue d’amour, histoire se répétant éternellement.


Bouchara is meant to be a long love song… The entire text is sung in an invented language, a language of love, a story which repeats itself continually.



Claude Vivier.
