This piece is my first electroacoustic work. After a year of experimentation and discovery of the equipment and computer software at the Conservatoire de Paris, I did several recordings of the cymbalum, the piano and various percussion instruments and processed these sounds using several plugins. My work is about contrasts, about the “images” I wanted to reflect, sometimes quite brusquely, sometimes closely or distantly and gently, but always with great force and inner power.
