Electric fragrances

Because loving music means loving it in all its diversity, this section takes a decidedly electric turn.

After orchestral, operatic, and sacred works, it would have been artificial to ignore the more direct, more instinctive dimension of musical creation. Song offers a different kind of expression: immediate, direct, sometimes irreverent.

Yes, there is a deliberately playful element to this approach. Composing and performing more electric, raw pieces also stems from the simple pleasure of making a rhythm resonate, of letting energy flow less constrained by sophisticated composition.

Here, sophistication sometimes gives way to impact. The lyrics can become more raw, the tone freer, and the intention more direct.

Those with delicate ears will likely prefer other pages of the site. This section embraces occasional vulgarity, a deliberate roughness, a less polished expression. It nonetheless complements the work of contemporary artist Dominique Dupray, revealing a more spontaneous facet of his compositional style, for coherence arises not from uniformity, but from the ability to explore multiple registers without compromising his exacting standards.
