Création 14/11/2015 - Clermont Ferrand, Festival Musiques démesurées, Théâtre le Petit Vélo - Christophe Desjardins (alto) Commanditaire Festival Musiques Démesurées Notice Cette pièce se situe dans la grande tradition des Lamenti de Monteverdi, Purcell, Britten (Lachrymae), ou encore plus récemment le Concerto lugubre de Tadeusz Baird. Il ne s'agit pas bien sûr d'une parenté esthétique, mais de cette capacité de l'alto à exprimer la plainte, et de sa parenté avec la voix. Deux éléments, l'un percussif et l'autre mélodique vont se répondre, se développer et interférer tout au long de la pièce jusqu'à lui donner une dimension polyphonique, telle que l'envisageait Berio dans ses Sequenza.
