The Human Voice / Organ Point

In 1958, Francis Poulenc composed "La voix humaine", a work in one act and for a single female character, alone and facing the distress of the break-up of love. Today, a contemporary composer with multiple facets and talents, Thierry Escaich has here imposed himself to compose a piece that mirrors Poulenc's own: "Point d'orgue". The challenge is to imagine the continuation of Poulenc's monologue in a renewed dialogue between Him and Her while a new character, the Other, comes on stage. Inspired by Cocteau's words, those of Olivier Py, a man of the theatre with modern forms of expression, offers a humanistic and humanist vision of the couple's dialogue.
