Event Description

From Polaris Prize and Juno award-winning singer Tanya Tagaq comes Split Tooth: Saputjiji, a performance expanding the elemental and poetic world of her beloved book Split Tooth.

From Polaris Prize and Juno award-winning singer Tanya Tagaq comes Split Tooth: Saputjiji, a performance expanding the elemental and poetic world of her beloved book Split Tooth. Neither adaptation nor concert, Split Tooth: Saputjiji is a new language of performance—gathering Inuit throat singers, musicians, and performers within a staged environment that blurs music and memory, landscape and breath. Tagaq’s voice, both singular and collective, channels the ancestral and the futuristic, invoking presences that move between worlds. Within this living sonic environment, distinctions between music, ritual, and theatre dissolve. Under the direction of Kaneza Schaal, the result is an expansive act of transformation—a conversation with the future through mythic realism, carrying the elemental power and radiance at the heart of Tagaq’s work. Presented by Music on Main, PuSh International Performing Arts Festival and The Chan Centre for the Performing Arts. This performance is part of Music on Main’s 20th Season. Music that resonates.
