My fascination with the culture of the Navajo Native Americans and their healing ceremonies based on harmony and beauty motivated meto listen to ethnographic recordings of their songs, which are customarily accompanied by rattles and drums. A number of these songsinspired me to create two works for different instrumental ensembles for students at the Conservatoire de Versailles. Both pieces represent miniature versions of ceremonial events. Thierry Pecou.
