CADENCE at Honens

CADENCE is an interdisciplinary event that merges the realms of piano music and spoken word. On October 9, 2024, audience members will experience a unique collaboration featuring 2009 Honens Prize Laureate Georgy Tchaidze on piano and Calgary's sixth Poet Laureate, Wakefield Brewster. The program includes pieces by composers such as John Adams and Olivier Messiaen, interspersed with Brewster's original poetry, exploring the emotional connections between music and narration. This innovative concert promises to transport listeners into a creative soundscape where the rhythms of both art forms coexist and resonate with one another.
