Works by Bertrand, Gougeon, Llugdar, Michaud and Thibault.
Ten renowned Quebec soloists interpret ten movements of Six thèmes solaires, Denis Gougeon’s famous planetary cycle. These ten short pieces, each associated with a celestial body and a specific instrument, will immerse you in a surprising musical odyssey. Musicians scattered throughout the audience plus a novel visual atmosphere will provide you with a unique sensory experience. Presenter Yanick Villedieu will guide you through the spaces while the journey will be mise en abyme (framed within a frame) through “astro-videos”. Interspersed during these ten movements, the Ensemble de la SMCQ will interpret three works composed by Denis Gougeon’s alumni, each inspired by Six thèmes solaires.
