During an artistic residency organized by the French Embassy in China, the musician conducted interviews with each member of the Lijian Dayan Naxi orchestra, an ancestral music orchestra, in order to get to know them and compose music for them. Every meal, every moment of rest or creation is an opportunity for conversations between this French musician and the heirs of age-old music.” “‘Immersed ears and dyed eyes’ is a Chinese expression meaning fusional immersion with a particular subject. Almost all the musicians in the Dayan Naxi Orchestra used this expression to express their relationship with traditional Naxi music and music in general. It's an immersion I experienced myself during my stay with them, both when we played together and when I studied Naxi music to transcribe it by ear.” J.-S.
