This suite was composed to accompany an exhibition with the same name. Fot both the artists K-Rol and Catherine Seznec, art enables to identify cultural roots they differently inherit from. They find in the primitive art the seeds that, like ligntings, go across centuries and history to directly feed their personal own creativities.
Although his music relies on a complex instrumentation, Charles-Edouard Platel's approach is also based upon the idea to start again from the beginning, before the civilized music, by connecting directy the hearing to the imaginary. In Heritage, tropical regions traditional musics are mixed with natural sounds and electronic sounds made up for the installation.
