(CANCELLED) Hélène Dorion with les Violons du Roy

Fri 20 Mar 2020 • 07:30 pm Classical / Minimalist / Modern Classical / Renaissance
Salle Bourgie - Montreal
· by Michel Rondeau

An interesting proposal, this literary concert – the prolific writer Hélène Dorion will read excerpts from her most recent collection of poems, Comme résonne la vie, accompanied the music of Les Violons du Roy, or in alternation with it. The musical palette will be varied: from the very Italian Renaissance madrigals of Gesualdo to a hypnotic piece by Estonia’s Arvo Pärt, as well as selected movements from string quartets by Schubert and Janacek, not to mention the premiere of a custom-made piece by Quebec composer Simon Bertrand.

PROGRAM

Gesualdo: Madrigals from libro quinto and libro sesto (Simon Bertrand, transcription)

Simon Bertrand: Creation pour des poèmes d’Hélène Dorion

Arvo Pärt: Summa

Janacek: String Quartet No. 2, Intimate Letters, 1st movement

Schubert: String Quartet No. 14 in D minor, D. 810, Death and the Maiden, 2nd movement (arr. for string orchestra)
