Concert
Bouchara: The Light of Other Worlds
Performed by: Brian Current and The Glenn Gould School New Music Ensemble
Conducted by Brian Current, this concert by the Glenn Gould School explores imaginary sound worlds through works by Claude Vivier, Hannah Kendall and Francis Battah.
Bouchara, Claude Vivier’s luminous work for soprano and ensemble, is widely recognized as one of his most beautiful and singular creations. Sung in an invented, intimate language, it conjures a sound world that feels both ancient and profoundly personal.
Musique d’un monde sans carte (Music from a World Without a Map), in its own way, extends this notion of hidden worlds where sound becomes a space of memory, imagination and discovery.
