2020.

I wrote a song for the Maîtrise de Radio France (French radio children's choir) as part of their project [Les chants de loin](https://www.maisondelaradio.fr/les-chants-de-loin-un-projet-artistique-original-de-la-maitrise-de-radio-france), for which they invited four composers to create something for the singers to sing and record from their homes during the Coronavirus lockdown.

My offering is called 'Ponts', and sets a beautiful text by Antoine Thiollier after Rimbaud. You can listen to it below, accompanied by a beautiful video by Morgane Fougeri.
