Halb, l’autre moitié / Halb, the other half

A musical tale with klezmer accents, written with Sigrid Baffert about memory and intergenerational transmission. The idea is to develop a leitmotif theme in various musical forms and colors, with numerous possible arrangements.

This tale has been turned into a book and CD narrated by Elsa Zylberstein, a “Coup de Coeur” selection by the “Académie Charles Cros”.
This is the only published version, but there are versions for:
– Clarinets
– Clarinets and strings
– Clarinets and saxophones
– Clarinets, saxophones, and flutes
– Wind band
– Symphony orchestra…
