Program Notes
Elle is a multimedia work, dreamed of in duo with Catherine Strynckx – the composition started from visual memories and sound fragments offered by the performer to the composer. The proposal is dense because it dives into the private sound world of the performer, and because it seeks to reveal some image of her nature - the one of a strange being, wonderful in her dedication to producing something as elusive as the sounds of music are. Elle is the cellist Catherine, or Music itself, or the shadow of her performance, a suggestion, an expressive intention, or a search, a search.
