Prana – Music of Breaths at Agora Hydro-Québec

Agora Hydro-Québec - Montréal À partir de 26$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

This concert offers a deeply emotional, spiritual and immersive experience, with four voices and four trombones encircling the audience. With their breaths and sounds, the performers explore the body’s seven yogic chakras in unison, translating them into meditative sound exercises and rituals.

Let yourself be swept away on an inner journey through wandering harmonies and uplifted by transcendent melodies.

Prana is originally a piece for four trombones composed in 2020 during the pandemic by Sandeep Bhagwati, whose work is at the heart of the SMCQ Tribute Series. Although each was located in a different city, the four trombonists had been able to play with a common breath, thanks to the breathing exercises of this long comprovisation. Later, in 2022, Bhagwati wrote a piece to accompany Prana, entitled Music of Breaths, this time for four a cappella voices. What these two compositions have in common is their exploration of breath and the sounds it can produce. On this evening, these two works will be intertwined, superimposed and fused into a great musical flow that will open up new perspectives in the way you breathe and listen.

Ce concert vous propose une expérience profondément émotionnelle, spirituelle et immersive avec quatre voix et quatre trombones encerclant le public. Avec leurs respirations et leurs sonorités, les interprètes explorent à l’unisson les sept chakras yogiques du corps qu’ils traduisent en exercices sonores méditatifs et en rituels.

Laissez-vous emporter par un voyage intérieur à travers des harmonies vagabondes et élevez-vous avec des mélodies transcendantes.

À l’origine, Prana est une pièce pour quatre trombones composée en 2020 pendant la pandémie par Sandeep Bhagwati, dont l’œuvre est au cœur de la Série Hommage de la SMCQ. Bien qu’étant chacun localisés dans une ville différente, les quatre trombonistes avaient pu jouer d’un souffle commun, grâce aux exercices de respiration de cette longue comprovisation. Par la suite, en 2022, Bhagwati a écrit une pièce pour accompagner Prana, intitulée Music of Breaths, écrite cette fois pour quatre voix a cappella. Ces deux compositions ont en commun d’explorer le souffle et les sons qu’il peuvent produire. Lors de cette soirée, ces deux œuvres seront entremêlées, superposées, fondues en un grand flux musical qui ouvrira de nouvelles perspectives dans votre manière de respirer et d’écouter.
