Here, the Sacred and the Profane exist side by side. The Sacred requires a ritual of chosen, slow and restrained motions, in a locus that is itself sacred, and provides visibility to the word made flesh. The Profane, through the simplicity of the words’ diction, playing, singing and speaking, invents a colourful space, one that is heterogeneous to itself. Within both configurations, the voice is ever present, as an anchor or a daymark. It carries the Word, either in presence or absence, opening or unveiling, and shines through the space-time of each piece.

“How did you design the program for this disk?The disk is made up most importantly of pieces that I particularly enjoyed performing in concert. But rather than making two recordings, one for Robert and the other dedicated to Clara, I imagined making both composers converse within the same universe. We are of course familiar with the hidden messages they constantly sent each other through their music and it seemed interesting to me to recreate an imaginary conversation between these two immense musicians. “

Musicians did not wait for the contemporary era to illustrate the chirping, trilling and squawking of birds. In the midst of the Renaissance, at the beginning of the 16th century, Clément Janequin was already creating the basis of their re-composition by mankind, with the polyphonic song Le chant des oyseaulx (“The Song of the Birds”). The composer stylized animal song using onomatopes and noise-based sounds.But it is without contest during the 20th century, with Olivier Messiaen, that we find the first true transcriptions of birdsong as a structural element of the score. In his wake, other composers borrowed the same path, with diverse objectives, means and results. All of them confessed to having a common reference point, upstream of their master, in the tutelary figure of Claude Debussy, inventor of a new style, free, ductile and natural – in a single word, modern.
