A woman comes home. She gets comfortable, helps herself a glass to drink, gets ready to eat. Soon, his speech, like a flow of thought, reveals loopholes from which images, memories spring up. She realizes, and the audience with her, that she is in shock: she has just had a car accident ...

Behind Brahms the Titan, ambitious heir to Beethoven and Schumann, stands the lover of the voice, the complicit observer of Viennese customs. This is the one who composes waltzes for four hands piano and vocal ensemble, intended for amateurs. Love songs to the rhythm of dance, these Liebeslieder Walzer alternately express desire, nostalgia, sorrow, and fun in the dialogue of hearts. To this emblematic collection, Léo Warynski joins several gems of Brahmsian vocal art, in which the colors of his Metaboles shine.

Une femme rentre chez elle. Elle se met à l’aise, se sert un verre à boire, se prépare à manger. Bientôt, son discours, comme un flux de pensée, révèle des failles d’où jaillissent des images, des souvenirs. Elle se rend compte, et le public avec elle, qu’elle est sous le choc : elle vient d’avoir un accident de voiture...

Everything sings at Ravel's: the strings of Daphnis and Chloé, the piano from Jeux d'eau or the whirlwind of fantastic characters from L’Enfant et les Sortilèges. However, his work for a cappella choir is reduced to the twirling but very short Three Songs. Never mind ! Didn't Ravel himself transcribe, here for piano, there for orchestra, a good part of his catalog? Here is Ma mère d'Oye, Miroirs, Scheherazade offered to the virtuosity and playfulness of the singers of the Métaboles - and in creation, the transcriptions of the Bolero and Pavane pour une infante défunte

In 1994, Messe un jour ordinaire crossed the vehement and shattering words of mass with that, individual and derisory, of Laurence, a young drug addict who appeared in a documentary by Jean-Michel Carré. 20 years later, Bernard Cavanna rewrites it to reinforce the presence of voice and choir.
