Between the musical instruments and their extension, I began to think about the incarnation of the instrument and the composer's ego. I was also inspired by a conversation about "rebirth" with an artist friend. For this piece, and in my collaboration with the ensemble proton bern, I decided to start with the clarinet d'amour, as an essential instrument. Dedicated to Richard Haynes
