Skand Alexis Blais

The basic idea that served as the focal point for the composition of Skand is above all rhythmic. I gave myself the challenge to articulate a pulsation that tries to position itself between different fluid objects. That pulsation appears with different functions before taking control of the organization of the piece during the final climax (spoiler alert). That simple idea is the motor used to create all the musical universe of the piece.
