In ’Envoütement VI’, Suzanne Giraud calls upon the soloist to imbue her structure with different vocal expressions, vocal gestures and imitations of the score for percussion, as well as, wherever possible, the play of lighting. The construction of the piece brings into rhythmic relationship the perspectives of composer, performers and public, including, by turns, several provocative devices. The work includes also a humorous dimension, in particuliar, through its use of the ’lion’s roar’ instrument, which marks turning points of the work like the blink of an eye, or the shout of protest of the composer.
