Electroacoustic work commissioned by Zjuul Devens and Jozef Moerloos in 1994 to mark the 50th anniversary of the destruction of the Fortress of Mimoyecques by the Allied Forces.  The Fortress of Mimoyecques (Marquise, France) was constructed in 1943 by Nazi Germany to shelter a battery of V-3 cannons that were aimed at London.

The work Mimoyecques features eighteen male voices speaking in the languages of the forced laborers that perished in the fortress.  They came from the following countries: Belgium, Bulgaria, ex-Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia, and ex-Yugoslavia.

Mimoyecuqes is released on my compact disc, L'envol, produced by the label empreintes DIGITALes:
