It happened in 1970…

5 novembre 1970: Olivier Messiaen rend visite à la SMCQ. Avec sa femme, la pianiste Yvonne Loriod, il offre un récital de ses oeuvres pour un et deux pianos. On le voit ici avec le jeune compositeur Gilles Tremblay (et sa femme Jacqueline) qui fut son élève dans les années cinquante.

Composing in the Present!

The SMCQ has been moving in step with the lively rhythms of new music for over forty-five years. With its regular concert season, its Série hommage (Homage Series), an international festival, and a young listener’s programme, the society has served both as a platform for today’s composers and as a window on creative works for everyone.
