for mixed choir a cappella (SATBarB)
Like the work Les effets du jour (The Effects of Light), also the setting of a poem by Paul de Brancion, this composition identifies the ecological catastrophes confronting human beings as a result of their irresponsibility. This composition focuses on the future scarcity of water. A melodic figure evokes the fluidity of this precious liquid, leading into a hypnotic shamanic song praying without avail for some rain.
