PODIUM: Ahskennon’nia – Chants de la paix

Fri 17 May 2024 • 08:00 pm Choral Music
Salle Pierre-Mercure - Montréal À partir de 15$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

En mai 2022, le chancelier de l’Université de la Colombie-Britannique, Steven Lewis Point, de la Première nation Skowkale, a déclaré : « La réconciliation est la chanson que nous chantons ensemble ». Ahskennon’nia, qui signifie « paix » en langue huronne-wendat, est le point de départ musical de cette collaboration autochtone qui réunit Andrée Levesque Sioui (auteure-compositrice-interprète wendat), Deantha Edmunds (soprano inuk), Alex Vollant (baryton et pianiste innu), le Choeur des enfants de Montréal (Eun Jung Park), l’ensemble vocal musica intima, avec Sherryl Sewepagaham (compositrice-interprète crie) en tant que directrice artistique du concert.

Ahskennon’nia présentera des compositions autochtones de Sherryl Sewpagaham et d’Andrew Balfour (cri) et sera l’occasion d’entendre, en première mondiale, la création d’une nouvelle œuvre chorale autochtone, commandée pour PODIUM 2024. Dans un esprit de réconciliation au travers du chant, cette œuvre, composée et dirigée par Andrée Levesque Sioui, dans un arrangement d’Andrew Balfour, interprétée par les artistes, les chœurs et les collaboratrices et collaborateurs autochtones qui participent à Ahskennon’nia sera entendue lors de la finale du concert.

In May 2022, UBC Chancellor Steven Lewis Point of the Skowkale First Nation declared, “Reconciliation is the song we sing together”. Ahskennon’nia, which means “peace” in the Huron-Wendat language, is the musical starting point for this Aboriginal collaboration featuring Andrée Levesque Sioui (Wendat singer-songwriter), Deantha Edmunds (Inuk soprano), Alex Vollant (Innu baritone and pianist), the Choeur des enfants de Montréal (Eun Jung Park), the vocal ensemble musica intima, with Sherryl Sewepagaham (Cree composer-performer) as artistic director of the concert.

Ahskennon’nia will feature Aboriginal compositions by Sherryl Sewpagaham and Andrew Balfour (Cree), and will include the world premiere of a new Aboriginal choral work commissioned for PODIUM 2024. In the spirit of reconciliation through song, this work, composed and directed by Andrée Levesque Sioui, arranged by Andrew Balfour, and performed by the artists, choirs and Aboriginal collaborators involved in Ahskennon’nia, will be heard during the concert finale.
