QUÉBEC MUSIQUES PARALLÈLES : New music and sound practices

Visuel QMP 2022
Visuel QMP 2022

Don't miss the Montreal visit of Québec Musiques Parallèles for a dazzling evening of music (at Le Vivier) with the Quatuor Bozzini string quartet and the electric guitar and electronics duo Moor-Kyriakides! A unique encounter between artists from here and abroad.

Bozzini Quatuor premieres cassettes, 16 movements for quartet and electronics inspired by dreams had during the first months of lockdown, encoded in the music played by the quartet and in the sound textures that surround it. In Rebetika, Andy Moor and Yannis Kyriakides explore and make use of the rich and mysterious terrain of rebetiko, a popular music born in the 1910s in Greece. The songs celebrate the "rebet" way of life, a mixture of good-heartedness and cunning. The duo's music moves from composed and arranged interpretations of old tunes to completely improvised pieces that capture a sense of gesture and tone from the original music, while incorporating a decidedly contemporary touch.
