Description:
Un cagou à Paris was commissioned by the Pays de Savoie orchestra. First designed for strings, it is now published in its symphonic version.
The music follows the journey of a cagou, a bird endemic to New Caledonia, in the Paris of the 1900 Universal Exhibition. The piece is constructed like like these books of period prints. The cagou is a bird that does not fly. Revenge is given to him on gravity at the end of this piece, when love finally allows him to fly away.
