Verso
Description
When I was composing Verso, I was fascinated by the unresolved interplay between two different textures. One element is constantly pressing onwards while the other remains stationary. The music constantly wavers between the two levels, analysing the potential combinations.

En écrivant Verso j’ai été fasciné par le jeu impartageable de deux textures. La prèmiere tend vers une progression constante, la seconde, reste stable. La musique se ment inlassablement entre ces deux niveux à la recherche de combinaisons multiples.
