Programme Notes -
dust not dust is completed. It is the second piece I composed during the global outbreak of COVID-19. At the time that I drew the last note, there was no information about whether the piece will be premiered, or when it will be premiered.
Beings, like dust, but not dust. They have desires. They search inward to the depth of their hearts and outward to the end of universe. Do they find something? Are they satisfied?
He is tired, lying on his bed. In the dream, she comes with words soft.
His eyes open. He draws another little notehead.
His heart is a piece of dust. The end of universe is the other piece. In between, there are people moving, seasons changing, and time flying.
A vast ground is under the moonlight. Streets are empty, streetlights shimmering.
She knows. She doesn’t say.
Recording by Soloists from Ensemble Intercontemporain, Philippe Grauvogel (hautbois), Jean-Christophe Vervoitte (cor), and Benoît Morel (alto).
