My concept of Music-Fiction, based on the principle of alternative history, consists in rewriting History of the past or the future and to imagine a music that could have existed or might exist.
Taïga Maya is the traditional music of a future civilisation, born from the fortuitous and virtual encounter of the Siberian Yakuts and the Mayans of southern Mexico a few years after the major Earth disaster of 2012. In a shamanic way, Taïga Maya tries to show the need to be connected to the real essence of life, to Nature, and to open our spirit to the non-ordinary reality that surrounds us.
« The Circadian world » tells the story of a young girl named Taïga Maya and through a narration of the tribulations of her family, demonstrates our total subordination to the rhythms of the cosmos and nature.
