Production Pentaèdre
An invitation for the ears and a treat for the eyes: every sense delights in this concert by the Pentaèdre ensemble! Recognizing the contribution of visual art to music, the quintet has created a platform for dialogue between colour and sonority, where the music performed is paired with various works of art. Works of Ravel and Mussorgsky will be accompanied by a new one by Sokolović, as well as her Chansons à boire.
Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky, Pictures at an Exhibition • Tableaux d’une exposition (1874; arr. 1999) (Joachim Linckelmann, arrangement)
wind quintet
Ana Sokolović, Chansons à boire (2001, 11)
wind quintet
Commission: Pentaèdre, with support from the CCA
Ana Sokolović, Promenade (premiere)
Maurice Ravel, Le tombeau de Couperin (1914-17) (Mason Jones, Gunther Schuller, arrangement)
Winner of the 2002 and 2008 Opus prizes, Pentaèdre redefines the concert experience while renewing — year after year — its interdisciplinary collaborations with dancers, singers, actors and mimes.
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.
