Abstract:

In this paper, the author presents an analysis of Forêt Profonde by Francis Dhomont (1996), in which she highlights the composer’s preoccupation with the psyche through his representation of the unconscious in the complex processes of metaphorisation and in his use of particular temporal structures.
