"En Quete"

First part of the collaborative venture with the photographer Guy Bompais, En Quête was written in 1996 for narrator, mezzo-soprano, violin and piano.

This work hovers somewhere between police enquiry and philosophical quest. We follow a lone man who is wandering in strangely lit streets, without apparent purpose, without clearly defined acts. His thoughts are forcefully expressed by Jean-Pierre Rosnay's poems excerpted from his "Fragments et reliefs".
