Le Vivier’s Second Season: 50 Years of Creative Music in Québec
“Le Vivier wants to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Semaine internationale de musique actuelle initiated by Pierre Mercure in 1961, as this week of avant-garde music was, for many, the founding event for Québécois new music. That is why Le Vivier’s second season is entitled: 50 Years of Creative Music in Québec. 17 concerts co-presented by Le Vivier and its members will showcase the diversity and richness of Québécois new music 50 years later. The 18th concert will bring together musicians from several ensembles for a grand event entitled Atlas.”
