'This piece aims to underline the very narrow link between the prayer of deliverance and the prayer of praise so particularly present all along the Holy Bible and especially on the book of the Psalms. Having this in mind I have chosen to develop at once, beside the main verses of the Psalm "De Profundis" (130) the first verse of the "Magnificat" (Lc. 1:47). Heartbreaking cry of supplication the first one, Ecstatic shout of joy the second one, both conveys together, little by little, more and more, until to become a profound sole expression of faith and gratitude: De Profundis, Magnificat!, 'Out of the deep, my soul magnifies the Lord!, Out of the deep, my soul magnifies You, my Lord!'.
