The Hymn in the Sun

“I love you, Sun! [...] I sing you, and you can accept me for your priest [...]” 詩 • Edmond ROSTAND 📜

The theme of this program is to reveal several facets of prayer ✨.

Prier is not always an immobile and silent gesture, on the contrary, it can take other forms like dance or singing.

Was it not hymns that encouraged pilgrims to continue their journey? 🥾🚶 ♂ in

Was it not popular songs that the peasants sang to give themselves strength to hold a long day? 🌾🧑 🌾

Was it not gospels that gave the hope and joy of living to people deprived of liberty? 🕊 _

The painful cry of the crowd at Bach - as if the organ sang “Herr, O Herr, wenn of the kommst? (When will you come, Lord?)” 🎹, the contemplation of the stars at Boëllmann ✨🌌, the insisting and explosive imploration at Alain💥, each piece contains its own wish 🕯 🕯 ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ ️ 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯

“Dearing is praying twice”, said St. Augustine ️. Yes, let us sing together until our prayer is heard, let us shout together until love is shared in the whole world! 🌍✱
