Ensemble MusiquAvenir and Véronique Lacroix perform works by Rea and Scelsi.

The contemporary music performance class and the Ensemble MusiquAvenir, directed by Véronique Lacroix, celebrate twenty years of contemporary music at the Conservatoire (1995-2015). Faithful to the Homage Series since its inception, they reaffirm their commitment to this year’s honoured composer by incorporating two of John Rea’s intimist works into their program: Schattenwerk for two violins, and excerpts from his famous piano cycle Las Meninas.
