I Musici de Montréal Comes to the Redfern

From Bill Menezes, Redfern: One of the world’s outstanding chamber orchestras, I Musici de Montréal, will appear in a multimedia performance of Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition on Wednesday, April 1, at 7:30 p.m. at the Redfern Arts Center. Earlier that day, I Musici’s conductor and artistic director, Yuli Turovsky, will lead a lecture/demonstration on the evening’s program at 2 p.m. at the Redfern. The lecture/demonstration is free and open to the public.

I Musici will perform Pictures with large-screen projections of choreographed paintings, which were inspired by the original Victor Hartmann paintings that inspired Mussorgsky’s timeless music (read more here). Tickets are available through the Redfern box office, 8-2168, or online.
