Description :

These seven settings for piano solo, like the original chamber music cycle, are evocative of the unscrupulous period of the slave trade: 'For me, the meaning of this work lies in the lasting remembrance, the reverent ceremony, not solely the emotionalism and contemplation of the prayer, but contemplation of the mind. Beyond the confines of memory, I would like to express the inconceivable, but in the greatest possible concentration without effects and dramatisation, like “a mute tocsin bell”. (Thierry Pécou)
