Summary of This Score
Les Hivers belongs to the realm of contemporary music and offers an orchestral journey in four movements, each nourished by a perspective on painting. It includes: The Deluge after Poussin - The Philosopher according to Rembrandt - The Hunters in the Snow after Bruegel - The Gondola on the Lagoon after Guardi. This "after" conception does not aim at illustration in the strict sense but opens spaces of perception: sound masses, textures, timbral and register play build a dramaturgy that dialogues with the visual imagination.
This orchestral score highlights a color writing particularly attentive to density and depth, where transitions, layers, and resonances matter as much as thematic events. Performers, conductors, and students will find ideal material here to work on balance among sections, attack precision, dynamic control, and clarity of sonic planes, at the heart of a contemporary language.
The project is also associated with a 3 CD recording by the Ensemble Modern Frankfurt conducted by Dominique My, providing a useful listening reference to prepare a reading, refine an interpretation, or situate the work within today's orchestral aesthetics.
