“Gibbons, Helmeted Hornbills, Cicada, Indian Cuckoos and Asian Fairy Blue Birds recorded by Pierre Huguet in a pirogue slipping trough the heart of the oldest forest in the world (it has existed for 120 thousand years without climatic upheaval). The CD presents also a guide to identify the species that are typical of Malaysia.” Patrick Frémeaux

Booklet

Malaisie-Forêt primitive

Malaisie - Forêt primitive
Malaysia - Primeval forest

There are numerous surprises in store, when you enter a tropical rainforest for the first time. In the untouched areas (primeval forest) there is a great deal of light – only 10 to 30% of the sun’s rays reach the ground. The trunks of the trees all look alike and on the ground, the vegetation, which is relatively sparse on account of the gloom, does not hinder your progress. The heat is not oppressive, rarely exceeding twenty-seven degrees Centigrade. The animals are invisible. In short, this is anything but a “green hell” and not much of a Noah’s ark either. It takes days, months or even years to discover the incomparable complexity of this environment. The biodiversity is such that it is rare to find the same species of tree less than a hundred metres apart. The same is true of the plants and most of the animals. If you listen carefully at various times of the day and night you will hear the crying or chirping of hundred of different species of birds, insects, reptiles and mammals, forming an ever-changing soundscape. The forest that covers much of Indonesia and Malaysia is one of the finest and oldest of the equatorial forests: it has existed for 120 000 years without climatic upheaval.

Part one: the concert
… a journey, during which the poetic, sometimes even dramatic tension is heightened by the mythical fear of this world of creepers, innumerable organisms and supposedly hostile rustling in the undergrowth … a composition, stepping beyond the limits of a strict documentary, to tell the listener who, what, how… an impressionist sequence, combining tiny movements captured in the tropical damp... insects, birds and reptiles in the mist of the early morning and under dark skies heavy with imminent storms, all essential parts of a rite that seems immutable, tropical… a space for the imagination, for escape from the bounds of knowledge, far from the conventional, alluring images…
Pierre HUGUET
