Works by Palmieri.
The first monographic concert dedicated to Silvio Palmieri! The Ensemble contemporain de Montréal (ECM+) and Paramirabo directed by Véronique Lacroix, with Louise Bessette at the solo piano, pay tribute to the Québec composer who recently passed away. It celebrates a boundless character with an unclassifiable style. To this end, Palmieri’s favourite performer Louise Bessette brilliantly illustrates the love he devoted to the piano repertoire; while his chamber music, vocal and operatic works testify to the power of instrumental colours and the poetry that tinged his writing.
