Saint-Laurent to the Sea

The River That Holds a Thousand Stories

On the occasion of the 490th anniversary of Jacques Cartier’s voyage, Voces Boreales celebrates the Saint-Laurent, a legendary river that flows through our history and imagination.

At the heart of the program is the premiere of the fourth movement of Sea Dreams by Canadian composer Peter-Anthony Togni, a work inspired by the breath and majesty of the river, evoking its legends and timeless beauty.

From its shores, the journey sets sail toward the horizon. The program also features Miniwanka (The Moments of Water) by Canadian composer R. Murray Schafer, a poetic tribute to water and the voices of ten North American Indigenous languages, weaving a bridge between nature, memory, and culture.

A concert that invites you to navigate stories, dreams, and melodies, and to feel the river resonate through the music.
