about

My cousin Élise visited New York with her family during Christmas 2013. One morning, as I was playing the mockups of the strangely- metered piece I wrote the night before, Anna, her two year-old daughter, began dancing spontaneoulsy. It was stunning to notice how kids at that age do not start by analysing music but just by feeling
it. From that point I knew that this piece was about dance.
The video samples used here are counts for Lindy Hop and Achy Breaky dances, and a Cheerleading tryout.
