Get a front row seat for this colourful and uncompromising concert featuring the creations of three distinguished sound explorers! Supported by the virtuoso instrumentalists of the SuperMusique Ensemble, Canadian performer Laura Kavanaugh, Australian-born clarinetist Elizabeth Millar, and SuperMusique doyenne Danielle Palardy Roger will premiere live works using graphic scores and improvisation instructions. With their characteristic and well-known sensitivity and attentiveness, the instrumentalists will play the scores provided in the form of drawings, colours, verbal instructions, or other surprising means. 

Under the direction of Elizabeth Millar and Danielle Palardy Roger, ten members of the SuperMusique Ensemble will follow old and new pathways by observing colour blotches, nature sounds, and satellite orbits. The flexible-instrumentation ensemble adapts perfectly to the musical writing of Laura Kavanaugh, Elizabeth Millar, and Danielle Palardy Roger, while putting its improvisational talents at the service of the performance.
