La composition Perroquets d'azur doit son existence à la hautboïste François Leleux qui a délivré la commission en 1993 et ??donna la première exécution de l'oeuvre. La composition est quasi renaît lorsque le saxophoniste Nicolas Prost m'a convaincu de produire un arrangement pour saxophone qui a été créée en 2008.Dans le respect d'une tradition de composition qui tente de transférer une structure polyphonique à un instrument monodique et, simultanément, inspiré par la musique folklorique j'ai entendu de mes premiers voyages à Cuba et au Mexique, c'était mon intention de communiquer une idée de la complexité caractérisant la polyphonie rythmique aux multiples facettes musique afro-cubaine. La pièce exploite tous les registres du hautbois et intègre en outre le bref incipit d'un chant Yoruban à la gloire du dieu Changó. La musique se développe dans un climat de plus en plus effervescence, aboutissant à une intensification du noyau rythmique de la musique afro-cubaine: la clave. / Saxophone
