This concert features a transatlantic dialogue between European and North American composers, presenting pieces with acoustic, electronic and visual elements.

Canadian composer James O'Callaghan (QC) uses live electronics to expand the special soundscape, while Lorenzo Troiani (IT) uses Lo-Fi electronics to act as his own instrument within the ensemble. Lisa R. Coons (US) and Nour Henry (QC) both work with visual elements visible to both audience and ensemble to present a live score. Tanja Brüggemann (AT) shapes her experiences during Hurricane Fiona in Canada into her new piece, and Pedro Berardinelli (PT) stands out in this program as the only purely acoustic composition.
