PROGRAM NOTE

Aime Helbing, was once a violinist but now has almost lost his hearing. He has been preparing a journey to Morocco for 40 years, reading a guidebook, taking notes and gathering information on Morocco. His wife, however, has persistently refused to go. 93-year-old Aime finally leaves for Morocco with his grandson, a filmmaker, who wants to help his grandfather realize his old wish and decides to film his grandfather lighthearted like a child waiting for a picnic. While his wife Alice looks back on her heartbreaking but happy young days as she listens to her husband¡¯s music, Aime rediscovers a world and life throughout his journey to Morocco with its exotic landscape and he calmly reflects on his life¡¯s lessons and lost opportunities. On the last night of the journey with his grandson, Aime chants that he has been hearing a melody since his arrival in Morocco. It is a precious journey that makes Aime feel a beautiful melody that changes the chord of his life from a gloomy minor to a cheerful major.
