Dedicated to the quartet "Diastema", "Imaginary dances" is a piece that revolves around an almost unique baritone line that supports the many variations of the other partners of the quartet. Everyone develops his solo, as an improviser who exploits the originality of his language. Like Philippe Geiss's "crossover" course, the colorings of the different parts of this piece are freely inspired by rhythms, colors and game modes, from all the influences that extend from classical and contemporary music. to jazz passing world music. The general color is thus very close to the sound of improvised music.
The coda, initially sweet as a memory then violent to finish, reminds us that life is sometimes unfair and do not make us a gift. This conclusion is a moment of emotion that pays tribute to Philippe Lecoq, great saxophonist, founding member of the quartet "Diastema".
