L'Infinie puissance des vagues - Mvmt. II

Le titre et le concept sonore de cette pièce sont tirés d'un poème en prose de mon père. La phrase entière est : "À chaque assaut de la mer, il rit, il joue à avoir peur, car il ne connaît pas encore l'infinie puissance des vagues.” Ce mouvement se déroule en vagues successives. Parfois timides, parfois menaçantes. Petit à petit, une masse humaine se révèle dans le va et vient du bruit blanc et des clapotis de la masse aquatique. 

The title and sound concept for this piece are drawn from a prose poem by my father. The translation of the full sentence is : “They laugh at each assault from the sea, playing at being scared, for they don't yet know the infinite power of the waves.” This movement is animated by a progression of waves. Sometimes timid, other times menacing. Little by little, a human crowd is revealed in the come and go of the white noise and wavelets of the watery mass.
