Mon œuvre est une profession de foi. À l’opposé de tout art abstrait ou stérile, et sans tomber dans un romantisme attardé, ma musique proteste contre toute facilité et décadence. Yves Ramette, 1963
« My work is a profession of faith. Away from abstract or sterile art, and without falling into late romanticism, my music protests against simplistic approach and decadence. »
