Summary of This Score
Synérèse by Michaël Levinas unfolds a poetics of sound that is both intimate and chiaroscuro. Here, "synérèse" does not refer to vowels, but to sound materials: close notes, reluctantly released, that touch, brush against, and eventually blend into one another. The composer himself evokes the "sounds of tears," an image that perfectly sums up this writing made of fragility, contained tension, and restrained outbursts.
The score lets brief, elusive, sometimes bending motifs emerge, like traces that seem eager to disappear. These figures, often worked through doubling of registers, appear to dissolve almost as soon as they arise, creating an impression of constant inner movement. Silences and deep breaths are not mere pauses: they become true formal elements, articulating the musical phrase and shaping the listening experience.
This work is intended for musicians seeking a contemporary repertoire rich in nuances, where precision of gesture and attention to timbre are essential. The interpretation benefits from careful handling of transitions, the continuity of legato when suggested, as well as the management of resonances and sound endings, in order to fully bring to life this fused, delicate, and moving sound material.
