Le sourire des égarés
Quatuor
Le Sourire des égarés (or The Wanderers’ Smile) is a piece about hope, about the human capacity to overcome any obstacle. Survival instinct gives every human being their chance ; resilience is always on the side of the living and offers them the chance to turn their flaws into a luminous and unaltered driving force.
Human beings are a sum of accidents, of modifications. They are a prototype that keeps on trying all the time, to avoid a lifetime of failure. Their ability is to turn weaknesses, fragilities and flaws into qualities ; a necessary dysfunction for poetry to occur.
Poetry and joy survive in this huge discrepancy, thanks to an ability to play tricks on everything, to play with everything, from the absurd to the tragic. Humans are just like that, definitely looking towards life.
