Program note

Être mis en scène ou pas
Être senti, non compris
Laissez les sons des autres inspirer les vôtres.
Laissez la musique sortir de vous comme si vous étiez un enfant.
La notation n’est qu’un repère de certains états
ne suivez jamais les signes mais seulement leur esprit.
dans cette partition vous faites ce qui est bien pour vous de faire
et laissez faire le reste par les autres. “Always be in love.”


To be staged or not
To be felt not understood
Let tones from the others inspire your own.
Let the music flow out of you as if you were a kid.
Notation is only a reminder for certain states
never follow the signs but only their spirit.
In this score you do what is appropriate for you to do
and let the rest to the others. Always be in love!



Claude Vivier.
