This work
was commissioned by the
Latvian choir Kamer
within the framework of a
large-scale project
centered round the topic
the sun. A poem by Paul
de Brancion is
interspersed with
expressions and sayings
taken from French
folklore. The poetic text
describing the
contemporary anxiety that
everything will be
scorched by the sun as a
result of global warming
provides a response to
popular opinion and
cheerful idioms. The
score is constructed like
a descent into great
depths, from the sunlight
into darkness. The
composition can also be
combined with its sequel
composition Au dessous
des etoiles (Under the
Stars) for mixed
choir.Thierry Pecou.
