Radio France, on behalf of Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France and le Choeur de Radio France, commission a new work from composer Geoffrey Gordon, inspired by the work of symbolist French poet Stéphane Mallarme (1842 - 1898). His iconic poem, Ses purs ongles très-haut, will be the catalyst for a large scale work for orchestra, chorus and solo BB clarinet, set to premiere during the 2024-25 concert season in Paris.
