OM: From the Abyss to the Stars

Sat 03 Feb 2024 • 02:00 pm classique
Maison symphonique de Montréal - Montréal À partir de 57,49$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Two major artists on the international opera scene join Yannick Nézet-Séguin in a sublime quest for light. Soprano Janai Brugger carries the steady, deep glow that characterizes Poulenc’s Gloria, the French composer’s landmark work, while mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill explores humanity’s greatest sufferings in the psalm “Du fond de l’abîme” (From the depths of the abyss) in order to bring out the spark of hope. Between these two choral works, there is a closeness: the inspiration Poulenc drew from the musical writing of Lili Boulanger.

Amy Beach, the first American symphonist, draws on her Irish roots to compose her Gaelic Symphony. She brilliantly illustrates the resilience of this decimated and exiled people who, despite the hardships, keep the flame of their culture alive through their folklore.

Deux artistes majeures de la scène lyrique internationale rejoignent Yannick Nézet-Séguin dans une sublime quête de lumière. La soprano Janai Brugger porte la lueur constante et profonde qui caractérise le Gloria de Poulenc, œuvre phare du compositeur français, alors que la mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill explore dans le psaume « Du fond de l’abîme » les plus grandes souffrances de l’humanité afin d’en faire jaillir l’étincelle de l’espoir. Entre ces deux œuvres chorales, une proximité transparaît : l’inspiration que Poulenc a puisé dans l’écriture musicale de Lili Boulanger.

La première symphoniste américaine Amy Beach puise dans ses racines irlandaises pour composer sa Symphonie gaélique. Elle illustre avec brio la résilience de ce peuple décimé et exilé qui, malgré les épreuves, maintient la flamme de sa culture grâce à son folklore.
