Pardon, j’ai pas bien compris

January 9, 2018 by Ivo Antognini Leave a Comment

Dear conductors and ChoralNet users,

Coro Calicantus, conducted by my dear friend Mario Fontana, gives a splendid rendition of my piece “PARDON, J’AI PAS BIEN COMPRIS”, which
means “Pardon me, I don’t understand”.

The text comes form a moving poem by Swiss writer Josiane Haas,
and it tells about a child that questions himself on injustice, violence and death. Not even his grandmother, who knows the secrets of time, can give an answer to him, actually, she pretends not to understand…

A really moving performance 😊

Happy New Year to you all!
