Leopoldine for mixed choir a cappella is based on « Les Illuminations » by Victor Hugo. They are 3 glances of the poet on his daughter, at very different times: happiness to be father, the death of Léopoldine, and Hugo?s mourning several years afterwards. The music of the compser and the words of the poet underline this eternal duality : the joy of life and the tragedy of the existence.
Funny but equally caustic in its political message, the poem by Décio Pignatari is the centre of the most iconic choral work of Latin America.
