Summary of This Score
"REN" can be written in several ways in Japanese, for example ? (love), ? (communication, connection), or ? (lotus). In "Tableaux imaginaires," this idea of multiplicity nourishes a work in three movements: "REN I," "REN II," and "REN III." The musical concept relies on a spirit where space is essential to evoke the image: a place of openness, projection, and a ground where the audience can build their own vision.
This score corresponds to "REN II," a piece for solo piccolo with a calm character, yet traversed by an inner energy. The writing involves precise breath control, mastery of dynamics, and timbre quality, in order to fully convey the sensation of space and contrasts in sound density. Composed in 2020 and 2021, these "Tableaux imaginaires" were premiered on January 13, 2021, at the Récital Hall of the Hyogo Prefectural Theater by YK Company, with Pierre Monty as guest soloist.
