Claude Vivier's work Pulau Dewata is most certainly one of this composer's most often playted. Because of its conception, allowing many different types of instrumental ensembles to play it, a wide variety of recordings and versions with different orchestrations can be found.

Premiered by McGill Percussion Ensemble's 9 players in the seventies, under the direction of Pierre Béluse, a version often considered as the "official" one, the orchestration performed by Sixtrum was this time done by percussionist Fabrice Marandola. Fabrice has actually written 3 versions of Pulau, one for voice and percussion, a second one for 12 percussionists (which was performed on tour by Sixtrum and 6 french percussionists), and finally, this one, that will be performed during the Conseil des arts de Montréal tour this year, in a Sixtrum concert titled Pléiades.
