The Gryphon Trio teams up with the exceptional Norwegian a cappella ensemble Nordic Voices for an evening of musical exploration, featuring new works by living composers from Canada and around the world. This unique, once-in-a-lifetime concert presents four commissioned pieces by some of today’s most compelling and emotionally resonant composers. Join us for the world premieres of new works by Andrew Balfour and Norbert Palej, and the North American premiere of Will Sing Life Again by Ukrainian composer Bohdana Frolyak – a poignant setting of texts by acclaimed journalist Viktoria Amelina. The program concludes with Scar Tissue – a major work created by Music TORONTO’s longtime composer-in-residence, Jeffrey Ryan, in collaboration with Giller Prize-winning author and poet Michael Redhill.
