"I participated with a great pleasure to the second edition of Les Rencontres Musicales et Scientifiques which took place in Le Thoureil in september 2016. I was seducted both by the relevance of the project and the beauty of the village, by the quality of exchanges and discussions between musicians and researchers, by the quality of the concerts (I think in particular at the beautiful way the Quatuor Girard gave an interpretation of my Quatuor n°4. 

The public was there, plentiful and enthousiastic, which prooved this original project has been able to seduce music lovers - as it seduced me when Elisabeth Angot and Celia Poulet presented it to me for the first time.
