The response to the languid ecstasy of the romantic pianoforte is the sulphurous and ineffable harmony of modernity: Antiquity thus offers an infinite subject inspired by the “Debussian” generations. The elusive borders of the music (Masques, Mirages), are dedicated to the element water like an unprecedented cult (L’Isle
joyeuse, Les Naïades).
