Chemin que tourne et joue

Perfect for a summer concert or a garden party, Chemin que tourne et joue by Jens Klimek is a delightful French secular work for SATB choir. The text conjures images of a winding path alongside a leaning vine, likened to a ribbon tied around a summer hat. This charming imagery then leads to a playful reflection on the vine that 'invents wine' and the wine itself as a 'fiery comet' promised for the coming year. Klimek’s setting captures the lighthearted, slightly whimsical nature of the words, offering a refreshing and engaging musical experience for both singers and listeners.
