About This Song
About "Figure humaine, FP. 120: No. 6, Le jour m’étonne et la nuit me fait peur" by Cantus
Poulenc's 'Le jour m'étonne' finds Cantus in a state of luminous dread. Daylight startles, night terrifies; the choir renders this duality with shimmering precision, each phrase a step between wonder and fear, capturing the surreal unease of being alive.
