Coproduction Quatuor Bozzini / Evergreen Gamelan
Witness the unexpected symbiosis of string quartet and Indonesian musical ensemble! Once again this year, the Quatuor Bozzini’s composers’ salon has become a venue for big surprises. Equipped with exotic instruments, the Evergreen Gamelan ensemble will join the Quatuor Bozzini to explore various fertile points of musical intersection between East and West, in a programme of contemporary Canadian works.

Through intimate recitals and largescale events alike, the Quatuor Bozzini has been spreading its passion for music around the world for over a decade. Toronto’s Evergreen Gamelan has explored both traditional Indonesian and contemporary music since 1983.
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.
