Allain Gaussin: Au-Delà Du Temps: Gesang mit sonstiger Begleitung

Commissioned by Ensemble Sillages and IMEP de Namur, and premiered on 24 January 2009 by Isabel Soccoja (mezzo-soprano) and Aïda Aragoneses (harp) at Auditorium du Quartz, Brest. The composer writes: 'Beyond Time is a sort of challenge to try and grasp the ungraspable, the fleeting, the inaccessible. The work consists of five sections that follow each other without a gap, revealing five allegories of Time: Virtual Instant, Mirror of Time, The Abyss of Time, Paradoxal Spirals, Beyond Time.'
