Composed for and dedicated to his friend Hans Zender for his 80th birthday, these compositions are in fact 36 Haïkus written by Pousseur himself, accompanied by his piano music, based on an ingenuous aleatoric score (included only in the LP limited edition) and played by Sophie-Mayuko Vetter, daughter of the German composer. A edition of rare beauty and moving poetry, highly sophisticated and deeply human at the same time.
