A work for four cellos based on J. S. Bach s Suite n.5 for solo cello. It is part of the 'Transformation' series that attempts to transport Bach s oeuvre into the modern era to convert Bach s writing into that of today. The work is composed of four successively played parts. Though the sonority is completely different each part is closely related to Suite n.5.Part 1 Densité (density): each semiquaver from the beginning of the prelude is extended to form dense chords.Part 2 Chant (song): a new melodic line emerges from different transpositions of the Sarabande s melodic lines.Part 3 Tempus fugit: fragments from the Courante pass quickly while the Gigue s basic rhythmis repeated relentlessly.Part 4 Dans le temps qui s étire (as time stretches): the Fugue subject from the second half of the Prelude appears about ten times bringing various developments.
