Michel Decoust was commissioned by the young ensemble “Perspectives”, a vocal quintet composed of singers from some of today’s best vocal ensembles, for a new piece that will be premiered on 20th July, at the Festival Radio-France et Montpellier.

Michel Decoust chose to work with a text by Philippe Bonzon, Poussière de souffle, from which he himself extracted passages in order to create a dramaturgy suitable for this musical piece.

In his first interview for Parade, Michel Decoust describes this new compositional adventure to us.
