Reimagine a legendary piece of music with Laura Bowler’s electrifying take on Schoenberg’sPierrot Lunaire.
Co-commissioned by Red Note Ensemble, Music on Main, and Ensemble Offspring,Deconstructing Pierrotis a bold response to Arnold Schoenberg’s celebratedPierrot Lunaire, widely regarded as a masterpiece of musical Expressionism. In this new work, composer-vocalist-provocatriceLaura Bowlertakes Albert Giraud’s original poems and Schoenberg’s music and turns them inside out in an act of creative rebellion.
Premiered at Scotland’ssoundfestivalin 2024, Bowler’s reimagining keeps what she loves and reshapes what she resists. The result is a deeply personal exploration of the artist’s tragic vulnerability: the longing to please, to be heard, and to be seen.
Western Canada’s foremost new music chamber ensemble,Standing Wave, brings Bowler’s vision to life with electrifying precision. The familiar fragments ofPierrot Lunaireremain, but transformed into something vivid, subversive, and that unmistakably belongs to Bowler.
This concert is generously sponsored by Past Presidents: Karen A. Gelmon, M.D. & Anne M. Stewart, K.C.
Grand piano provided by Showcase Pianos.
This performance is part of Music on Main’s 20th Season.
