Ensemble Caprice turns 25 this year LaScena Musicale met the ensemblersquosfounder Matthias Maute and its co-artis-tic director Sophie Lariviegravere to take stockof this musical quarter century and dis-

cuss their artistic vision a vision that whilenot always breeding unanimity has won thema loyal audience over time

An ensemble of variable geometry Capriceis composed of five core members assisted byother musicians in order to scale the ensem-blersquos size according to the project being un-dertaken These members are Matthias Mauteflutist composer and conductor his wife So-phie Lariviegravere also a flutist David Jacquesguitarist Suzie Napper viola da gambist andcellist and Ziya Tabassian percussionist

ldquoWersquore a bit on the margin artisticallyrdquo saysMaute ldquoThis elicits negative reactions espe-cially on the part of critics who put us downClassical music is so traditional formal andreligious that if you venture outside thenorms a bit there are knee-jerk reactionsrdquo

ldquoThe Baroque scene is less conservative butit depends on what yoursquore doingrdquo adds Lariv-iegravere ldquoWith Bach and other well-known workspeople are more cautious But if we play com-posers that fewer people know as we did onour album Salsa baroque it gives us some lib-erty Anyway even when we try to draw on allreadings of the era therersquos always a musiclover or a critic who has imagined an ideal ver-sion which for them we cannot surpassrdquo

For Matthias Maute the life of a musicianand artist is more than the simple role of faith-ful interpreter It is a research project one ofconstant discovery and exploration

ldquoWhat interests me most is finding a way to

explore reality through music The momentwe get on stage something happens Itrsquos notjust notes You must reach a state where youare outside of yourselfrdquo he explains

MASS IN B-MINORThis research yields results that can some-times be shocking This was the case withtheir performance of Bachrsquos Mass in B-minorat the Darling Foundry with some 40 singersand musicians in 2009 A controversial con-cert it both impressed audiences and infuri-ated critics Le Devoir notably described it as

ldquosmoke and mirrors that suffocate the musicand strip it of spiritual significancerdquo while TheGazette compared the concert to ldquospeedmetalrdquo

ldquoFor this concert we won the 2011 Prix Opusfor Concert of the Year in the Medieval Ren-aissance and Baroque Music categoryrdquo says

ON THE COVER ENSEMBLE CAPRICE

BEETHOVEN AND DAVE ST-PIERRETo celebrate their 25th anniversary EnsembleCaprice is preparing an entirely original concerta performance of Beethovenrsquos Symphony No 2during which dancers will perform choreographyby Dave St-Pierre

Matthias Maute says that he is impressed bythe approach of the Montreal choreographer whois known for his audacity and innovation

ldquoHersquos extremely well-structured and organized soitrsquos easy to work with him He has a vision thatrsquos fo-cused on the positive when he works with his dan-cers Often in classical music therersquos a negativeapproach that focuses on the rules with peoplesaying lsquoNo you canrsquot do thatrsquo as well as a style ofworking where the conductor alone makes deci-sionsrdquo he explains ldquoWith Caprice I try to reinforcewhatrsquos good and point out the musiciansrsquo strengthsrdquo

Joining forces with modern dance which hasan artistic approach very different from that ofclassical music requires research and reflectionBut somewhere along the way this creative ap-proach fits with the philosophy of Ensemble Ca-price and its conductor

ldquoDance should express something close to usrdquohe says ldquoWith music we work within the frame-work of tradition But in my opinion it isnrsquot tradi-tion that brings us closer to music and its contentI think itrsquos important to forget tradition in order tofind a way that allows the future to become thestuff of classical music Itrsquos difficult becausewersquore changing the rules of the game Forexample I sometimes tell musicians that theycan play wrong notes itrsquos not so bad Whatrsquosmost important is to bring out other things inmusic an energy that touches us If at the end ofa concert you feel like you are no longer thesame person for me that is music Dave St-Pierre does the same thing with dance but in themost radical way possiblerdquo

He believes that this unconventional expe-rience with an artist who is considered by many inthe dance scene to be an ldquoenfant terriblerdquo willallow the ensemble to go even further in its in-novative research

ldquoThis will allow us to be even more daring and toexperiment with ourselves because in the endthatrsquos what art isrdquo he clarifies ldquoIt is to follow aperception and a vision that didnrsquot exist beforeThe problem with classical music is that the worksare now part of the canon When they were crea-ted Beethovenrsquos symphonies were revolutionarybut now they are integrated into this canon Andpersonally for us the canon and tradition donrsquotinterest me I prefer trying things out and riskingtheir not working out in concert The real barrierto overcome is to find a way around everythingthat stops music from transforming us in the mo-ment that we make itrdquo

This concert takes place on January 17 2015at 8 pm at Salle Pierre-Mercure

Maute ldquoAnd at the same time there were ter-rible reviews Especially of note Ton Koop-man an early music legend who was inMontreal at the time as the honorary presi-dent of the Bach Festival was at the concertand he detested our interpretation Friendswho met him in Europe last year told me thathe talked about that concert as being appallingAt the time I got a call from my Europeanagent who had heard a recording He askedme lsquoWhat is thisrsquo All this traumatized me Wehad taken liberties that some considered un-acceptable I didnrsquot know that you could shockconnoisseurs so much That wasnrsquot our goalBut if you see something in music and youcarry it out you find an energy and an incred-ible power that are overwhelming Thatrsquos whatinterests us with Capricerdquo

Whether you love or hate their work musi-cians are determined to fulfill their quest

ldquoTherersquos a critic in the USA who in talkingabout us used the term lsquorehear the worldrsquoThatrsquos become our motto and our ultimate

goalrdquo says Maute ldquoItrsquos very difficult to achieveand it motivates us artisticallyrdquo

ldquoTherersquos something very baroque about thisapproachrdquo says Lariviegravere ldquoIn that era thesequestions werenrsquot asked in the same way be-cause they werenrsquot performing the same thingsover and over Composers borrowed ideasfrom each other Handel took excerpts fromhis own works to use them in others Theproblem of todayrsquos performer is that the sameworks have been performed a thousand timesIt creates expectations But for us as per-formers itrsquos important to program concertsthat stimulate even frighten us Without that

we canrsquot develop and grow

TRANSLATION REBECCA ANNE CLARK

FOUR IMPORTANT ALBUMSIn 25 years Caprice has recorded 17 albumsSince 2007 the ensemble has been workingwith a very popular partner Analekta Amongthe most recent recordings here are four thathave influenced their history

1) Vivaldi The BaroqueGypsies (2007)Nominated for a PrixOpus at the ADISQ andat Echo Klassik

ldquoVivaldi lived near aport where strangersfrom Eastern Europewould arrive They came with their instru-

ments In general people donrsquot like the idea ofmixing the intellectual music of great com-posers with that of people like the gypsieswho were unwanted in cities and townsrdquo ndash So-phie Lariviegravere

2) Gloria Vivaldirsquos An-gels (2008)Winner of a Juno Awardin 2009

3) Telemann TheBaroque Gypsies (2009)Nominated for a Prix Opus and at the ADISQ

ldquoTelemann was very interested in gypsy musicwhich he mentioned in his writings He spokeof a barbaric beauty and said that after hear-

ing this music he wasinspired for life It reallyhad an impact on himFor us it was an eye-opener to discover gypsyinfluences in his musicand it helped us moveforward musicallyrdquo ndashSophie Lariviegravere

4) Bach BrandenburgConcertos andShostakovich Preludesop 87 (2012)Named one of the bestalbums of the year byThe New Yorker

This year the ensemble didnrsquot make any new recordings inorder to devote itself to making videos which can be viewedon the site noncerto wwwvimeocomchannelsnoncerto

The problem withclassical music is thatthe works are now partof the canon Whenthey were createdBeethovenrsquos symphonies were revolutionary but nowthey are integratedinto this canonrdquo

To celebrate its 25th anniversary the AlcanQuartet tackles one of the jewels of therepertoire issuing three full volumes ofBeethovenrsquos complete string quartetsTwenty-five years ago the Quatuor Alcan

was born thanks to an amazing synergy whichcontinues today despite the ups and downs oftime

ldquoIt was the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean Symphony Orchestra (OSSLSJ) and Alcan (in2007 it became Rio Tinto Alcan) that decidedto form a string quartetrdquo says cellist DavidEllis on the phone

ldquoFrom there we had to audition to fill the po-sitions in this quartet with the four membersalso becoming the first chairs of the orchestraWhen we arrived we thought it was a greatplace to live and to give life to a string quartetrdquoBorn in Vermont Ellis also invited his wifeMontreal violinist Nathalie Camus to auditionfor the quartet and by extension the OSSLSJ

In 1989 the radio landscape was quite differ-ent than it is today especially on the airwaves ofpublic radio and on the side of ChicoutimiSaguenay one could say this created winningconditions to welcome the new formation

Camus recalls ldquoAt the audition there wassomeone from the CBC who promised us two

broadcasts per year It was important and itwas very helpful in establishing our nameOtherwise in such a small community itwould not have been so easy ldquo

Ellis continues ldquoAfter our first broadcast onthe CBC the station received many requestsfrom local stations across the country thatwanted to know more about this new quartetJust to tell you how much things have changedon the side of the CBC at the time we thoughtwe were doing too much radio We have toconstantly renew our repertoire Itrsquos funny tothink back to it today ldquo

The quartet quickly realized that its locationin an outlying area provided many advantages

ldquoPeople see us as a true regional treasurerdquo saysEllis ldquoYou canrsquot find this in a large center likeMontreal ldquo

ARTISTIC ECOLOGY Three members of the Alcan Quartet alsoteach at the Conservatoire de Saguenay andthe recent rumors of closure of some regionalbranches of the Quebec Music Conservatoryhave raised concerns

ldquoIt is clear that the closure of the Conservatoirede Saguenay could have jeopardized the futureof the quartetrdquo Ellis comments ldquoWe want tostay here and have a busy musical life but we

need to work The quality of the arts scene is alsoimportant for most professionals who come tothe region doctors university professors etc Itis clear that the Conservatoire is now in theprocess of changing and we certainly hope thatthis story will have a happy endingrdquo

The closure could indeed have led to a hostof collateral damage possibly exiling profes-sional musicians to larger cities Camus says

ldquoFor example if a member of the quartet had totake up a position elsewhere the quartet willstill continue to survive because it is a satelliteof the OSSLSJ which should in any case finda replacement But if the Conservatoire was toclose it would certainly be more difficult to attract someone to the area especially with apublic radio that is much less presentrdquo

Along with Camus and Ellis the othermembers of the quartet are violist Luc Beauchemin who joined the group in 1994and Laura Andriani who took on the positionof first violin since 2003

The Alcan Quartet has produced 15 record-ings covering a wide repertoire from Mozartto contemporary compositions

ldquoI believe that this is what distinguishes usrdquooffers Camus ldquoWhen we came here to estab-lish ourselves it was really the quartet projectthat attracted us most as working with an orchestra is something that can be done just

about anywhere as a freelance musician Withthe quartet we impose a sustained rhythmupon ourselves as well as a lot of repertoireWith the OSSLSJ there is a series of six Tuesday concerts and we are responsible fortheir artistic direction We perform in four ofthe concerts which accounts for four differentrepertoires alreadyrdquo

There are also new works like Andrew MacDonaldrsquos which the quartet will performin February as part of this series

ldquoWe havenrsquot yet seen the piecerdquo says Ellisldquobut hersquos preparing something to celebrate our25th anniversary He composed for us beforea few years ago and we wanted to re-connectwith him for this new project The pianistJohn Roney will also be writing a piece for usrdquo

The Alcan Quartet accompanied the pianistas well as bassist Alain Caron during a concertgiven last October as part of the QuebecInternational Jazz Festival They performedworks created by Alain Caron arranged byRoney

ldquoThis type of project helps to showcase ourversatilityrdquo continues the violist ldquoWe are prepared to take on all kinds of projects andto defy the image that many people have of astring quartet We first wanted to establishourselves as a classical quartet and the majority of our recordings are in this sensestandard programs in which we play the greatclassics but we have also made forays intocontemporary music with a disc dedicated tothree of Andreacute Preacutevostrsquos quartets for exampleWe rehearse every morning and we look at oursituation in Saguenay somewhat as if we werea ldquoBanff Centrerdquo of the East Itrsquos a huge advan-tage to be able to concentrate on our workwithout being continually distracted by otherthings We have the time and the space to workas we wish and we take full advantage of itrdquo

BEETHOVENWithin the repertoire of string quartetsBeethovenrsquos quartets comprise the essentialbody of work that all ensembles wish to takeon These seventeen works composed byBeethoven over a 30-year period constitute averitable monument to the genre And thoughthe Alcan Quartet is only offering a recordingof his complete cycle now they did not wait 25years to present their take on Beethoven

ldquoWe have already performed the completecycle at least three times in concertrdquo recallsEllis ldquoLike every good quartet we began towork on these works t the very beginning ofour career So really there are 25 years ofwork behind these recordings The OrfordQuartet recorded Beethovenrsquos complete cyclethirty years ago but no other quartet inCanada has succeeded in finding the condi-tions required for such an undertaking Themusicians must be willing to devote them-selves entirely to such a project We started tothink about it five years ago in anticipation ofour 25th anniversary We are very happy thatATMA was willing to embark on this adven-ture with us Of course itrsquos natural to wonderif we really need another recording ofBeethovenrsquos cycle but I believe that it is still ahighly important event for musical life inCanadardquo

What are the features of Beethovenrsquos quartets as performed by the Alcan Quartet ldquoIthink that itrsquos mostly our soundrdquo repliesCamus ldquoWe have a personality that has be-come defined over time and I think you canhear thatrdquo

Ellis adds ldquoWe are four people with verydifferent histories I come from the USALaura our first violin comes from Italy whileNathalie and Luc are from Quebec I thinkperhaps that gives us each different ways ofseeing music and a special energy that isnrsquot

there for example with an ensemble in whichthe musicians all come from the same schoolrdquo

The first volume of the cycle will belaunched this month while the second onewill appear in January and the third in April

ldquoWe spread the recordings out over five yearsrdquonotes the violinist ldquoIt ended up being almostas if we produced two recordings per yearwhich isnrsquot bad We decided to release themall together once they were all recorded butthatrsquos a difficult strategy because during thattime if yoursquore not releasing any albums youare less visible We have still been able torecord other projects so these last few yearshave been pretty intenserdquo

Two albums actually came out in 2011 oneon ATMA (Carte postale with works by JoseacuteVieira Brandatildeo Alessandro Annunziata JoseacuteEvangelista Miguel del Aguila Dimitri Nicolau Paquito DrsquoRivera and Aiumlrat Ichmouratov) and the other on Analekta (withpianist Alain Lefegravevre and works by AndreacuteMathieu and Ernest Chausson)

The sleeves of the three albums reflect thethree periods in which the quartets were cre-ated The first is young Beethoven (the first sixquartets 1798-1800) which is closer toHaydnrsquos model but nevertheless succeeds inasserting his personality The second period(quartets nos 7 to 11 1806-1810) is more ma-ture showing a composer who has come intohis own Finally the last of the quartets (theGrand Fugue and quartets nos 12 to 16 1825-1827) which according to Camus ldquoreally poprdquo

ldquoOne of the things that is important to usrdquosays Ellis ldquois promoting our region and forthat reason the photos on the album sleeveswere taken in Saguenay hellip at least 40rdquo Camusexplains ldquoWe wanted a spectacular setting toillustrate Beethovenrsquos music ndash not a phototaken in some hall but in a big space the kindwe find right here at homerdquo

UPCOMING CONCERTSSince its creation the Alcan Quartet has givenhundreds of concerts at home and abroad andalthough i t doesnrsquo t l imit i tse l f to theBeethoven repertoire the release of the com-plete cycle will allow the ensemble to addmany more concerts on the road in the com-ing months On November 4 as part of theOSSLSJrsquos Mardis-concerts series the first volume of the Alcan Quartetrsquos Beethoven cyclewill be launched in their part of the countryOn the 12th the ensemble will appear inMontreal at Bourgie Hall and on the 16th atSalle Rolland-Brunelle in Joliette The concert series continues until 2015 as withthe releases of the other volumes of this greatmusical adventure

Quebec certainly has nothing to envy whenit come to electroacoustic music Indeedthe province is full of creative composerswho continue to push the limits of theirdiscipline thus gaining international

recognition Even if their music often approaches an acousmatic style familiar in Europe there is something there that setsthem apart and gives them a sound and anaesthetic all their own

Here is a list of ten must-listen works byhome grown composers that will allow you todiscover the panorama of Quebecrsquos electroa-coustic œuvre

CRYSTAL MUSICSTEacutePHANE ROY 1994

In Crystal Music com-poser Steacutephane Roy ma-nipulates his sonicmaterials by expanding itmoulding it and causing itto change as if he wereblowing glass The very na-ture of the sounds used isreminiscent of glass and crystal There is some-thing nervous and unstable in this piece Intense dynamic variations as well as explosions of energy that emerge suddenlyfrom the silence only to fade just as quicklycharacterize this piece While listening to it alistener notices parallels with some of FrancisDhomontrsquos most abstract pieces Itrsquos no coin-cidence that Roy was a student of his

LE VERTIGE INCONNUGILLES GOBEIL 1994

Le vertige inconnu isprobably the strongestpiece not only on thealbum La meacutecanique desruptures but also of theentire Gobeil repertoireUsing concrete sounds theorigins of which can berecognized the composer creates a quasi- surrealist cinematographic universe withinwhich crickets and compressed air machinescoexist All of Gobeilrsquos skills that make himsuch a unique composer are brilliantly illus-trated in this piece like vivid articulation andruptures of silence by sudden explosions ofsound Le vertige inconnu won the StockholmElectronic Arts Award an international elec-troacoustic competition (Sweden 1994) andtook second prize at the Prix Ars Electronica(Linz Austria 1995)

EXPRESSJEAN PICHEacute 2002

Jean Picheacute is definitely an innovator At thestart (think of the piece Taxis to Burning Sky)the composer quickly turned toward imagesand developed a whole new discipline that hecalls ldquovideo-musicrdquo What Picheacute is trying to ex-press is a symmetrical perception between im-

ages and sound a synergyFor eXpress a work forthree screens Picheacute filmedimages from a train be-tween Bourges and ParisThe landscapes are recog-nizable The very kinetic allure of eXpress isachieved by setting the camera to a fast shut-ter speed with a large aperture The minimal-ist and repetitive music contributes to theworkrsquos trance-like effect

ARKSALALARTOcircQ MICHELINE COULOMBE SAINT-MARCOUX 1971

This piece plays around the abstraction ofspeech voice and even musical instruments Arksalalartocircq referencing texts by Quebecpoets Noeumll Audet and Gilles Marsolais ex-presses the dizziness of words and sounds byanalogy with the Inuit game in which partici-pants (usually women) test their capacity to cre-

ate and emit sounds andwords mostly meaninglessones Intercut with percus-sive sounds or in somecases with analogue syn-thesizers Arksalalartocircq isreminiscent of certain Stockhausen pieces as wellas of Schoenbergrsquos Le Pierrot lunaire

PROFILE IWAN EDWARDS

by KRISTINE BEREY

Since he arrived in Montreal from hisnative Wales almost a half a century agoeminent choral conductor and teacherI w a n E d w a r d s h a s e n r i c h e d t h eMontreal music scene immensely

Edwards has accumulated many accoladesand awards during his career including theOrder of Canada But his greatest legacy is thenumerous outstanding choirs that he createdndash and in time said farewell to These includethe St Lawrence Choir (founded in 1972)FACE Treble Choir ( founded at then-Montreal Symphony conductor CharlesDutoitrsquos request in 1981) the CanadianChamber Choir (founded in 1999) and theMSO Chorus (which Edwards directed from1986-2007 and in which his St Lawrencechoir formed the amateur core)

This year marks what Edwards calls ldquothehardest wrenchrdquo as he prepares to retire fromConcerto Della Donna (CDD) which hefounded in 2000 This unique ensemble is ded-icated to showcasing the beauty of womenrsquosvoices and highlighting music written byfemale composers and consists of 18 youngwomen Many of them sang with Edwards inthe FACE Treble Choir in their teens

ldquoOf all the groups Irsquove worked with this is thegroup with which Irsquove had the closest associa-

tionrdquo Edwards says He considers it a privi-lege to work with Concerto Della Donna andalso with I Medici di McGill an orchestra ofdoctors and medical students that Edwardshas conducted for the past 14 years ldquoThese aretwo organizations with an incredible workethic They brought this commitment torehearsals that was extraordinaryrdquo he tells us

The women in CDD perform four major pro-grams a year ldquoEvery one of them is in theirmind accountable everybody brings 100 ormorerdquo he explains In teaching interpretationEdwards stresses the importance of the textsaying that sometimes conductors forget thatthe words came first ldquoI try to get them to thinkin pictures If yoursquore dealing with something thatis very sad then it is not enough to say lsquothismusic is sadrsquo they know that already I try to putthem into the situation I ask lsquoCan you imaginewhat your reaction would bersquo going beyond thewords and notes into the core of music itself Atthat point it just comes off the pagerdquo

Is his decision to leave a choir ever relatedto the singers having reached their peakEdwards is quick to say no ldquoYou never actu-ally reach that peak Once you reach a peakyou are reaching for the next one It is a con-tinuous process If you donrsquot feel that thechoirs sense itrdquo Rather he leaves when he canno longer give his best because he no longerhas the energy required to take them further

He recalls conductor Charles Dutoit as amusical ally during the years he worked aschoirmaster of the MSO chorus ldquoI loved work-ing with him He gave me space all the time andnever put any restrictions on me whatsoeverHe never came to a choir rehearsal just saidlsquoMake sure they are readyrsquordquo

The MSO won a Grammy and two JunoAwards for their choral recordings duringEdwardsrsquo 21-year tenure there He says he wasdisappointed that the MSO under KentNagano did not retain the St Lawrence choiras its amateur core after he left ldquoIn two yearsit was moved out I couldnrsquot understand whyThis was a choir I built over 35 yearsrdquo

Working with children has always been aspecial joy for Edwards After he left the MSOa group of parents from FACE asked him toconduct a childrenrsquos choir again ldquoIt wasanother opportunity to work with children soI said yes I loved itrdquo The fact that kids arecurious and open to different kinds of musicpleases Edwards ldquoI would bring music byMurray Schafer and they would say lsquothatrsquos coolrsquoand get very excitedrdquo he says ldquoI believe thatpeople will try to do what you want if it isrespectful and reasonable Then you can movemountains and this is especially true of chil-dren The only ceilings children have are thoseadults impose on themrdquo

On Sunday November 30 Concerto DellaDonna performs its final concert entitled

ldquoOnce and for Allrdquo a celebration and tribute totheir beloved conductor that will featurealumni and guest musicians Edwards is par-ticularly excited about young composerChristine Donkinrsquos Magnificat ldquoThe sound-scape she creates in that piece is just unbe-lievablerdquo he notes mentioning CDD memberand composer Marie-Claire Saindon as well

ldquoHer music is basically tonal but has a soundthatrsquos completely differentrdquo

Although this is CDDrsquos final concert coincid-ing with Edwardsrsquo retirement he says ldquoThe CDDwill cease to exist but the group will rise like aphoenix under a new name and they will makea new kind of ensemble There is a very strongaffinity between them and they realize that CDDhas an image of which they are very proudrdquo

Amena Ahmed a member of CDD whodescribes her singing experience as ldquospiritualtherapeutic and humblingrdquo has spearheaded adocumentary film featuring Edwards and ldquothehunt for the art of happiness through the finalmonths of a music conductorrsquos careerrdquo Thesuccessful crowd-funding project supportedby what may be called the Iwan Edwards com-munity has raised $26791 Edwards is gen-uinely surprised at the attention directedtowards him on social media with peopleexpressing how he made a difference in theirlives ldquoI have never seen myself as a person whodoes those thingsrdquo he says ldquoAll I wanted to dois to share my music and try to make othersbelieve that all things are possiblerdquo

PROFILE PHIL IPPE BOURQUE

by KRISTINE BEREY

Itis easy to see why choral conductorPhilippe Bourquersquos students at VanierCollege gush ldquooutstandingrdquo and ldquoawe-somerdquo in ratemyteacherscom In per-son he shares boundless energy and

passion At 33 Bourque is pursuing what heloves the most making music and conducting

Last March Bourque was named the thirdartistic director of the venerable St LawrenceChoir a position he holds with pride due toIwan Edwardsrsquos influence and its ldquogreat historyrdquoas the founding core of the Montreal Symphonychorus Now that the choir is no longer part ofthe MSO Bourque plans to refocus the 60-member chorus in its own concert series

ldquoWe often think of music in terms of earlymusic chamber music opera symphonic andcontemporary music but the oratorio is a richrepertoire that is being neglected in the cityrdquostresses Bourque citing 19th century choralconductor and composer Guillaume Couturersquosoratorio society in Montreal as a legacy toemulate ldquoThe St Lawrence Choir can singthat repertoire for soloists chorus and orches-tra It is a niche they specialize in and I wantthem to shine to be the best oratorio chorusin the cityrdquo he says

One of five siblings born into a musical fam-ily in Ste-Anne-des-Plaines mdash his father was aminister and his mother a pianist and churchaccompanist who studied piano at McGill withCharles Reiner mdash Bourque began accompany-ing his churchrsquos choir at age 12 His parentswere adamant that their children receive thebest possible musical education and sentthem to Montrealrsquos Pierre Laporte a highschool specializing in music ldquoThatrsquos where Imet Louis Lavigueur who triggered my desireto conductrdquo Bourque recalls

McGill Universityrsquos Julian Wachner wasanother mentor to Bourque who obtained hismaster rsquos in Choral Conducting underWachnerrsquos guidance When Bourque audi-tioned as an undergraduate for Wachnerrsquos

choir he mentioned his interest in conductingAt the first rehearsal he was floored to see hisname listed as assistant conductor ldquoHe gaveme a lot of things to look at sources booksand simply tons of opportunities He was sobusy he would call me up and say lsquoIrsquom lateyoursquore up within the next hourrsquordquo he recalls ldquoIwould be freaking outrdquo Bourque served asWachnerrsquos assistant for McGillrsquos ConcertChoir and Chamber Singers for five years

Bourquersquos musical curiosity reaches acrossa wide spectrum in both history and genresFrom his years in church Bourque holdshymns in high regard and was the recipient ofa scholarship to study hymnology Heexplains that hymns not only provide a par-ticipatory opportunity for the worshippersbut also convince them to answer the voice ofthe gospel ldquoWhat the chorale was to Bachhymns are to the Protestant churchrdquo he says

ldquoHymns have a tremendous history peoplewrote them in great despair in struggle insickness If you really want to grasp the depthof this music you need to consider what it saysrdquo

An accomplished classical pianist who alsoloves to play and conduct jazz he recalls beingdistracted from practicing by his own musi-

cality ldquoAs soon as I made a mistake it openedup a new path I loved that mistake and keptimprovisingrdquo

One source of pride for Bourque is the factthat some of his Vanier choristers have joinedthe St Lawrence choir with the older andyounger singers complementing each other ldquoIwould like to have an impact on the next gen-eration of singersrdquo he says ldquoI believe a lot inpedagogy and I do think the primary goal of aconductor is to teachrdquo

Therersquos no mistaking Daniil Trifonov for aromantic even when speaking on thephone from Russia In recent years the 23-year-old pianist has beguiled the classicalmusic world with a display of elegant flair

reminiscent of Franz Lisztrsquos Bashful at timeshe cranked up his soft-spoken demeanour anotch when he decidedly stated at onepoint with a boyish chuckle ldquoI think itrsquos im-portant for any artist to make people fall in loverdquo

However when asked about his rise to famewhich has been described by critics and thoseclose to him as like a fairy tale Trifonov hesi-tated before finding the right words to dismissthe romantic notion of an overnight sensation

ldquoIt was really little by littlerdquo Trifonov said ofhis musical journey that crossed prestigiousconcert halls around the world and resulted inan exclusive recording contract with DeutscheGrammophon (DG) His first recording on theYellow Label was his live Carnegie Hall recitaldebut on Feb 5 2013 a day before the DGcontract was sealed featuring Lisztrsquos Sonatain B minor Scriabinrsquos Sonata No 2 in G-sharpminor Op 19 (the Sonata-Fantasy) andChopinrsquos 24 Preludes Op 28

A native of Nizhny Novgorod one of Russiarsquos largest cities Trifonov is the onlychild of musical parents His father is a com-poser his mother a music theory teacher Thetwo started their son on the piano after theyrecognized his musical talents at the age of five

ldquoI have perfect pitch If I heard a melody Iwould always try to replicate it on the pianordquoTrifonov said ldquoSo my parents said OK yoursquollplay the pianordquo

A few years later the Trifonov familypacked up their belongings and moved toMoscow where Trifonov studiedwith renowned piano instructor Tatiana Zeligman at the Gnessin School of Music

ldquoI studied with Tatiana from the age of nineto 18 She is one of the best piano teachers andGnessin is one of the best music schools inRussiardquo Trifonov said ldquoWhen I was youngermy parents would of course give me adviceon my music studies but I really learned themost from Tatiana who helped me to developmy musical knowledgerdquo

Thanks to Zeligmanrsquos collection of oldrecordings and LPs Trifonov said he was ableto study historic recordings of great pianistsincluding the likes of Sergei RachmaninoffJosef Hofmann Vladimir Horowitz and IgnazFriedman

ldquoI was interested in these and other golden-age musicians from Russia Europe and the

United Statesrdquo said Trifonov who gave hisfirst performance with an orchestra when hewas eight years old By the time he was 16 hebegan playing at competitions which he saidhelped him learn to play better While therewas always pressure to do well at competitionsit did not come from his teacher or parents

ldquoNot so muchrdquo he recalled ldquoThey just wantedme to do my bestrdquo

Trifonovrsquos ldquobestrdquo soon proved to be remark-able At 17 he won fifth prize at the fourth International Scriabin Competition in Moscowand first prize at the third San Marino PianoCompetition In 2010 he was one of seven finalists of the Eurovision Young Musiciansand a medalist of the XVI International Fry-deryk Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw

Then came 2011 At the age of 20 Trifonovwon the 13th Arthur Rubinstein InternationalPiano Master Competition in Tel-Aviv as wellas the XIV International Tchaikovsky Compe-tition His performance at the latter competi-tion was so dazzling it prompted pianistMartha Argerich one of Trifonovrsquos idols totell the Financial Times ldquoLast night I listenedto him again on YouTube ndash he has everythingand more What he does with his hands istechnically incredible Itrsquos also his touch ndash hehas tenderness and also the demonic elementI never heard anything like thatrdquo

Trifonov has since made numerous inter-national debuts both as recitalist in leadingvenues and as concerto soloist with major orchestras His Toronto debut at Koerner Hallin 2013 was met with an enthusiastic sold-outcrowd and his debut with the Toronto

Symphony Orchestra in September went sowell he treated the audience to an encore afterperforming Rachmaninoffrsquos Rhapsody on aTheme of Paganini

Despite playing more than 100 concerts ayear Trifonov recently completed ndash on fullscholarship ndash his artist certificate studies atthe Cleveland Institute of Music (CIM) Histeacher there is the distinguished pianist andeducator Sergei Babayan with whom Trifonovstill studies whenever he can and performsconcerts of works for two pianos In additionhe is studying composition with Keith Fitch atthe CIM which commissioned Trifonov towrite a concerto for its Year of the ComposerVirtuoso program that aims to create a new generation of composer virtuososHe gave the world premiere of his Piano Con-certo in E-flat minor at the CIM in April

ldquoItrsquos a pleasure to play for any generationbut itrsquos important for any artist to engageyoung peoplerdquo Trifonov said ldquoOne of the mostexciting experiences Irsquove had was in Korea Inoticed there were many young people sittingin the audience at least 30 or more And because I meet a new piano in every city I playIrsquom always searching for something else in themusic ndash a new way a new colour a new char-acter a new interpretationrdquo

Trifonov returns to Canada in the new yearwith violinist Gidon Kremer in Toronto (Jan20) and Montreal (Jan 21)

Gioacchino Rossini hit a jackpot with TheBarber of Seville an opera full of tunefularias Itrsquos little wonder that it has nevergone out of the repertoire The most rec-ognizable tune is the intrepid barber Fi-

garorsquos opening aria ldquoLargo al factotum dellacittagraverdquo (Make way for the cityrsquos jack-of-all-trades) when he comes on to the scene liter-ally to the rescue of the lovelorn CountAlmaviva

Itrsquos a 5-minute vocal show piece (stretchingover a 12-page vocal score) that is arguably themost feared and challenging aria in the bari-tone repertoire Easily found in most operaanthologies many a student baritone has triedand failed in this aria during his lifetime ldquoItrsquosthe most stressful aria for baritones becauseof how high it sitsrdquo says Canadian EtienneDupuis who has sung the role of Figaro ninetimes over three European productions andwho is making his Canadian and hometownrole debut in Montreal Operarsquos upcoming pro-duction ldquoWhen it starts itrsquos already prettyhighrdquo he explains ldquoAnd you know you needto keep your stamina in check because at theend itrsquos really quick and highrdquo

The aria also constitutes the first notes thebaritone sings ldquoSo being very nervous is re-ally the worse thing that can happen becausethen you have less breath and less time to dowhat you want to do The other challenge isthat you have to act the whole way throughbecause nobody expects you to just singrdquoDupuis says

THE SECTIONSThe aria can be divided into 6 sections fastfaster slow moderate fast and faster culmi-nating in a long held high G Baritone AndrewBriggsrsquos 2014 doctoral thesis analyzed 33recordings of the aria since 1908 and found

many different ornamentations showing thatthere is no one ideal version Dupuis cautionshowever that one should sing it as one longaria ldquoYou have to think of one big thing notdivide it into little segments otherwise it willbe boring You have to be able to go all the wayto the end If you worry about a part in themiddle yoursquore doing it wrongrdquo

Dupuisrsquos favourite part is in the slow sec-tion ldquoItrsquos when I sing lsquocolla donnetta col cav-alierersquo Itrsquos where I have the most fun byinteracting with audience This gives you lib-erty and you can move around and pauseAnd it can rest the voice but not for longrdquo Themost challenging part comes next ldquoThe re-peating phrase lsquouno alla volta per caritagraversquo is akiller because it rises in the baritonersquos pas-saggio in Es and Fs When you are sick ortired thatrsquos where you get in troublerdquo

ADVICEWhat advice does Dupuis offer to younger bari-tones ldquoWe all have issues with vowels andvowel placementsrdquo says Dupuis ldquoThe musicalline jumps all around with octave leaps andarpeggios and itrsquos hard to keep the proper open-ing in the throat and mouth to make sure it res-onates well Keep it easy and make sure yoursquorenot pushing And if it sits higher than whatyoursquore comfortable with it just gets that muchharder You may try to compensate by givingmore energy you push and if you do it for justtwo seconds you might not be able to finish it Iwould focus on relaxing at all times all vowelsplaced properly so that there is less fatiguebeing created Then when you master it you addthe acting intentions which are crucialrdquo

Dupuis recalls a performance at the Operade Quebec Gala two years ago ldquoI was sick andmy voice was tired but the reviews suggestedI stole the show I knew vocally I was weak soit means that I was in character and it got methrough the performancerdquo LSM

As of 2005 the Ville de Montreacuteal had no policy concerning cultural governanceper serdquo explains Secretary-GeneralManuela Goya of the Steering Commit-tee of the 2007-2017 Action Plan ndash Mon-

treacuteal Cultural Metropolis The subsequentimplementation of a truly valuable set of poli-cies for culture and the arts in Montreal wasto require the co-operation and synergy of allstakeholders involved in the sector Goya fur-ther elucidating her 2007 mandate says ldquoThisintrinsic feature of the federalist model in-volving various levels of government de-manded a plan of action and a vision toorchestrate and harmonise the needs of allparties at the federal provincial and munici-pal levels of governmentrdquo The initial meetingof the Action Planrsquos Steering Committee inNovember 2007 was attended by some 1200participants over two days at Montrealrsquos Palais

des congregraves and allowed people involved inarts and culture as well as those in the busi-ness community to express their concerns re-garding the future of Montreal as a culturalmetropolis The resulting action plan calls foran initiative spanning 10 years with four keypriorities greater access for citizens to artsand culture the promotion of investment inkey infrastructure the development of fund-ing for organisations promoting the arts andthe expansion of Montrealrsquos sphere of influ-ence on the provincial federal and interna-tional stages

SEVEN YEARS AND NINE ELECTIONS LATERSince then it has been necessary to ensurethat the Action Planrsquos objectives would remainunaffected regardless of political changes ingovernment ldquoSo far we have lasted seven

years and nine elections in three jurisdictionsrdquosays Goya as she highlights one of thestrengths of the cultural sector ldquoWe cannotfail to agree on the principles concerning cul-turerdquo she says before describing the functionsand mechanisms of effective oversightadopted by the Secretary-General of the Action Planrsquos Steering Committee The moni-toring of commitments is ensured by a co- ordinating committee which is responsible forthe proactive oversight of resolutions to anyobstacles that may arise ldquoThis new form ofcultural governance and oversight has provedits worth As a matter of fact the EuropeanUnion has praised its innovationrdquo says theSecretary-General who notes that the ActionPlanrsquos Steering Committee is ldquoa unique institution in CanadardquoQuartier des spectacles The first major test

According to Manuela Goya the Quartierdes spectacles project was the first major testof the clarity of the commitments made byvarious institutions on the federal provincialand municipal levels She enthusiastically

A CALL FOR PROJECTSThe Society for the Celebration of Montreacutealrsquos375th Anniversary invites creators to proposeprojects exclusively designed for this momen-tous milestone Their legacies must leave theirmarks well beyond the 2017 festivities This callfor projects was launched at a press conferencewith the participation of Montreacuteal Mayor DenisCoderre as well as the Minister responsible forthe Montreal region Robert Poeumlti The Ministerof Infrastructure Communities and Intergovern-mental Affairs and Minister of the Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regionsof Queacutebec Denis Lebel was also in attendanceProposed projects must follow the guidelinesand fulfil the following criteria to be eligible theproject must be exclusively designed for the375th it must be held during the celebrationsbetween the December 21 2016 and Decem-ber 31 2017 The project must also providetourism or socioeconomic benefits that leave alasting impact beyond 2017 A second appealwill be launched in 2015 which will involve projects with a more local influence to celebratethe 375th in Montreacutealrsquos neighbourhoods AsPresident of the 375th Society France ChreacutetienDesmarais advises that ldquoprogramming choiceswill be based on the investment gains which willbe generated from renewed pride tourism andsocioeconomic benefitrdquo The 375th Society invites the public to submit proposals via thewebsite at www375mtlcomencall-for-projects

MONTREAL DOES IT BESTAs the 2017 deadline for the action plan approaches can we say that Montreacutealrsquos artistic andcultural competitiveness has improved Goya an-swers ldquoyesrdquo proudly and with deep conviction Thisshe says is no reason to believe that Montreacuteal islacking in the ability to contend The predominanceof Montreacuteal as a host city for international meet-ings is unparalleled in North America It stands infirst place overall according to the InternationalMeetings Statistics for the Year 2013 published bythe Union of International Associations Goya alsoanticipates that the city will remain at the top of theranking in 2014 ahead of New York City Chicagoand Rio de Janeiro for a third consecutive year Itshould also be emphasized that Montreal ranked

in the Top 5 of Intercultural Cities according to theco-chair of the Cultural Commission of United Citiesand Local Governments an association of cities responsible for the cultural implementation ofAgenda 21 the sustainable development actionplan of the United Nations Conference on Environ-ment and Development As for the accomplishmentof major cultural institutions the most inspiring example currently according to Goya is providedby the Museacutee des beaux-arts de Montreacutealrsquos successful launch of the exhibition La planegravetemode de Jean-Paul Gaultier which has been on aworldwide tour This exhibit which will be presented in Paris next year was met with world-wide resounding acclaim after touring Dallas Lon-don Madrid Melbourne New York City RotterdamSan Francisco and Stockholm

posits that Montreacuteal has succeeded excep-tionally well in this regard The proof ldquoSevenyears later the National Film Board of Canadahas moved to the Quartier des spectacles Itrsquosgreat news that attests to the value of the workthat has been accomplished since 2007rdquo Nevertheless there is more work to be doneLibraries for example ldquoare still in the processof catching up with the historical and culturallag in regards to libraries in the English systemrdquo says Goya She also emphasises thatthe cultural metropolis also encompasses cul-

ture at the community level In this regard shedetails the numerous parks and public spacesspecifically furnished for the purpose of engaging cultural and artistic expression inthe public sphere

In summary ldquoWhere there is a will there isa way Ultimately however we have to be astute and above all know that we cannot accomplish the task before us alonerdquo Goya invokes the principle of quantum physics ex-plaining that ldquoThe whole is greater than thesum of its partsrdquo is the founding principle ofthe mandate of the Steering Committee

ldquoOf course projects must be compelling andespecially well thought-outrdquo she explains admitting that governments are increasinglycapricious concerning criteria Yet she notesthat the criteria are not static ldquoYou can alwaysreconsider them notably when they concerninvestments of a strategic naturerdquo she notesciting as examples the Complegravetement Cirquefestival or the grant of $94 million to supportthe circus company Les 7 doigts de la mainwhich was announced last July by CultureMinister Heacutelegravene David The latter will enablethe iconic troupe to develop a creative centrein the heart of the Quartier des spectaclesthereby contributing to the status that Montreal holds as a world-renowned circuscapital

PARADIGM SHIFTldquoThere is quite a paradigm shift within thebusiness communityrdquo says the Secretary- General She recounts that ten to fifteen yearsago members of the cultural milieu were reticent to entertain let alone support theconcept of cultural management ldquoThey werescreaming bloody murder because the business community neither knew how to approach culture nor how to speak the lan-guage of artistsrdquo Today times have changed

The age-old question of profitability or lackthereof does not even arise With 91000 direct jobs in 2012 the arts and culture sectoris ranked among the key industries and nowrepresents 51 of total employment with56000 arts and culture workers ldquoWith thesechanges there is now seldom talk of corporatesponsorship Instead there is an equal part-nership between the business community andthose in Arts and Culture The era of imposedconditions has passedrdquo she says as she mar-vels at the progress that has been made in thespan of a decade TRANSLATION R K BASDEO

THE NANTES EXPERIENCEldquoAs paradoxical as it may seem it is not the

large cities that inspire me the mostrdquo Goyaspecifies ldquobut rather the unique experiences ofsome medium-sized cities such as DuumlsseldorfSeattle and especially Nantesrdquo She cheerfullyaddresses the experience of this French citywhich in many ways is analogous to that ofMontreal Notably as a result of the loss of itslarge port the power and influence of Nanteswas heavily reduced in a way that is compara-ble to the economic exodus that occurred inMontreacuteal ldquoNantes had the same limitations asMontreal the people of Nantes turned theirbacks on the Loire River like our city with the StLawrencerdquo explains Goya Nantes managed torecover by engineering a means whereby itwould ensure a renaissance ldquoNantes and itsadministration chose arts and culture to spear-head its recovery encouraging public art andurban planning structured around cultural cen-tresrdquo Inspiring indeed

Itrsquosnot a secret anymore therecording industry is reallysinging the blues these daysIn the 1980s the majorswere predicting that the

compact disc would wipe the good old vinylrecord off the map

Thirty years later the CD is now under siegetaken over by digital downloads even by itsonce-condemned predecessor vinyl The cur-rent digital onslaught has turned everythingupside down but vinyl never disappearedcompletely like its predecessors the phono-graph cylinder and the 78-rpm record But ifit hadnrsquot been for DJs even that peculiarbrand of music-lover known as the audiophileit may well have fallen by the wayside

The first ones hit by the current crisis arethe majors In the 1990s they had all con-verted to the compact disc sometimes invest-ing huge sums in their productions butdragged their feet when the trend towardsdigital downloads took off

Smaller recording companies and inde-pendent labels would also feel the pinch andthey too have since been caught in the crunchWith regards to jazz a market mainly domi-nated by small labels times have been toughseveral have given up but the survivors wereforced to cut back on their production sched-ules to remain above water

To shed some light on the situation LaScena Musicale polled the directors of sixrecording companies by submitting thefollowing three questions to them

I- Is the CD bound to disappear completely ordoes it still have a place in the marketII- Have they noticed an increase in onlinesales of their products and a decrease in discsales III- Since vinyl seems to be making a come-back are they ready to go back to that format

The following producers were surveyed1- Jim West Justin Time Records (Montreal)2 - A l a i n B eacute d a r d l e s d i s q u e s E f f e n d i(Montreal)3- Russ Summers Nuscope Records (DallasTexas)4- Patrik Landolt Intakt Records (ZurichSwitzerland)

5- Eric Fillion Disques Tenzier (Montreal) ndashproduces only vinyl records in limited editionruns6- Joe Torchinsky Bronze Age Records(Montreal) ndash produces vinyl as well as CDsthe latter for promotional purposes alone

I ndash As for the heralded death of the CD someresponders were less pessimistic than othersJim West Patrik Landolt and Russ Summersfeel that it will not be banished immediately ndashthe latter giving it another ten years Neitherdo they foresee its complete disappearance aslong as music lovers still want a hand-heldobject Jim West noted that jazz fans are stillrecord collectors at heart Alain Beacutedard andthe two vinyl producers were more definiteThe former confirmed a steady decrease instore sales and a clearly inferior sound quality(16 bit) ndash as compared to high-resolutionsound files Fillion and Torchinsky are amongthose who had never been blinded by the sil-ver disc A one-time punk musician Fillionwas always part of a musical milieu that pre-ferred vinyl which explains his bias Hequickly rejected CDs in creating his own labelin 2011 just as digitalized music was takingroot Torchinsky admits howeverthat a CD can sound as good asvinyl but only with a high-enda u d i o s y s t e m w h i c h i sreserved for those with themeans to pay for it and whojust wonrsquot settle for less Asfor West and Beacutedard the CDstill has a place particularlyat concerts Beacutedard remarkedthat he had sold four times thenumber of CDs at performancevenues than in music stores (whichare becoming scarcer)

II ndash The first four producers have noted anincrease in online sales of their labelsalthough the growth has been gradual PatrikLandolt mentions 8 of his sales a modestfigure indeed However since he sells throughonline stores and not on his own site hebemoans the low return in terms of royaltiesa feeling shared by Alain Beacutedard The latteralso frowns on the practice of streamingwhich is not regulated and commands ridicu-lous returns on sales Whatrsquos more onlinestores rake in the whole amount and never

invest in the production of albums But whentaking into account the international marketJim West ads a little perspective to the issueWith no exact figures at the ready he feels thatin Europe and even more so in Asia CDs arestill very much in demand with a marketshare of 70 in America that figure is about40 Our two vinyl producers decided not totake that path Fillion tried it out with no realsuccess

III ndash So what about that highly touted returnof the vinyl Although aware of the pheno-menon our interviewees donrsquot agree on itsextent Producers who are specialists in vinylembrace it for its sound qualities as well as forits aesthetic value (sleeve and graphics largerformat of liner notes) Torchinsky evenbelieves that this growth will continue untilvinyl makes its comeback as the musical mate-rial of choice Fillion for his part has adoptedit because it lends itself to his editorial line ndashissuing unpublished experimental musictapes from the 1960s and 1970s Both Westand Landolt arenrsquot ruling out reverting toproducing vinyls in the future the former hasalready issued one LP in the previous year and

is thinking of reissuing one out of hisexisting catalogue in the next year

That said he believes that vinylwill be nothing more than adrop in the bucket More cau-tiously Patrik Landolt willonly do so if his customerswant it Beacutedard and Summersfinally have no intention of

taking this route both preferto sell high-resolution down-

loadable files (for ex WAV11 for-mat) For Summers just the cost of

shipping a single vinyl is exorbitant and andisincentive in itself a fact admitted to by adie-hard fan such as Fillion Shipping a singleunit to Europe costs him $18 higher than theprice of producing itTRANSLATION KARINE POZNANSKI

by CHRISTINE ML LEE

After a distinguished 40-year teachingcareer at Vanier College including 16years as Music Department coordinatorMontrealer Nadia Turbide is retiring inJanuary In May a concert dedicated to

her drew hundreds of Vanier alumni and musi-cians from the Montreal area all witnesses toher impact on the Canadian music scene

ldquoNadia is a shaper of peoplerdquo says EricaPhare former choir director at Vanier College

ldquoHer expectations of excellence from others areso natural that excellence is exactly what theywant to give in return for her trust in themrdquo

Turbidersquos successor Glen Ethier will havebig shoes to fill Even so she has confidencein his ability ldquoGlen is an exceptional teacherwonderful personality an excellent emcee atmany of our concerts a team player and a nat-ural leaderrdquo

HER JOURNEYA musicologist teacher writer translatorbroadcaster and administrator Turbide haswritten over 80 articles for the Encyclopediaof Music in Canada and has contributed to theDictionary of Canadian Biography and theNew Grove Dictionary of American MusicIn 1965 Nadia Turbide was the first Maria-nopolis College graduate to earn a BA with aMajor in Music She subsequently obtained aBachelor of Music (1969) and a Masterrsquos ofMusical Arts (1976) at McGill University andlater a doctorate in Musicology at the Univer-sity of Montreal in 1986

Turbide was introduced to cultural admin-istration in 1971 when she became responsiblefor an area stretching 200 miles (fromMatapedia to Gaspeacute) on the Baie-des-ChaleursThere she set up a mobile library and handi-craft shops and organized courses Though itwas a summer position she extended her stayto two years ldquoIt was an adventurous timerdquoTurbide says (She confides that she almostbecame a lobster fisherman)

Turbide returned to Montreal in 1973 Thenext year at Vanier College she began teach-ing several subjects part-time includingCanadian and American Music getting full-time status in 1975 Over the years she hastaught theory ear training and history Aftera stint as Chair of admissions she became theMusic Coordinator in 1998

HER VISIONThe respect and admiration that she has for

her colleagues and students have inspired herdrive and devotion Since becoming Music Co-ordinator she has introduced many eventsfrom choir concerts productions festivalsworkshops and scholarships to various otheractivities (See her list of accomplishments)

ldquoYou want to do the best you can for the stu-dentsrdquo she says ldquoI was very lucky I never hadto worry about the quality of the music [thanksto] my colleagues I was free to try to do asmany activities as I possibly couldrdquo

As a result alumni and students feel a greatsense of belonging to Vanier Percussionalumnus Greg Macintosh has even decided topass on his $8000 marimba to another Vanierstudent attesting to the strength and gen-erosity of the community Turbide has builtover the years A benefit concert on November12 has been set up to highlight this gesture

HER DEVOTION TO MUSICWhen prompted about why music is differentfrom other subjects Turbide replies ldquoIn musicyou must listen to each other and you have towork as a team to perform and create musicThere has to be a sense of mutual music makingand supportrdquo Believing that ldquomusic makes onemore openrdquo she explains that one must ldquogiveonersquos self entirely to the processrdquo and that the actof ldquogiving an equal share to the performancerdquohelps promote teamwork and discipline

Turbide continues ldquoThere is nothing likethe joy of performing with other peopleBecause one is vulnerable when performingthere has to be this lsquocompliciteacutersquo this supportand this exchange and understanding betweenthe teachers and the students They are uniqueexperiences that you carry for the rest of yourlife And of course you make lifelong friendsrdquo

Many see Turbide as incredibly dedicated tothe cause of music and her thoughts highlightthis devotion She explains ldquoI would rather beorganizing and hosting MusicFest Quebec

than taking a week off It gives [the students]a sense of purpose of direction and a chanceto learn an instrument even if their studieslead them somewhere elserdquo

As chair of admissions Turbide has seenher share of parents reluctant to support theirchildrenrsquos decision to study music She wouldtell them ldquoIt is better that the student trymusic because you donrsquot want them to regret(not doing so) for the rest of their lives Theymay discover that itrsquos not meant for them Itrsquoshard but there is much joy in a music careerrdquo

THE NEXT ADVENTUREAlways one to undertake a new project Tur-bide looks forward to redirecting her energyand enthusiasm to resume her work on the bi-ography of Canadian mezzo-soprano Eva Gau-thier the subject of her doctoral thesis Shehad previously conducted over 50 interviewswith such composers as Ned Rorem and VirgilThompson dancerchoreographer Agnes deMille and music patron Alice Tully and re-ceived numerous letters from American iconsincluding Aaron Copland and Marian Ander-son Nearly 30 years after acquiring the rightsto write a book Turbide will continue her re-search during her retirement

NOVEMBER 2014

by MARC-OLIVIER LARAMEacuteE

Little by little Canadarsquos major musical institutions are renewing their facilitiesAfter the Royal Conservatoryrsquos KoernerHall in Toronto and Montrealrsquos Maisonsymphonique Queens University in

Kingston Ontario is doing likewise Manypeople will recognize similarities between TheIsabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts(The Isabel) and Montrealrsquos new concert hallsince the same acoustic design firm Artec(now integrated with the firm Arup) designedthe project Other collaborators includedSnoslashhetta and N45 Architecture as well as Theatre Projects Consultants

Queens University wanted a multifunctional space that would servenot only music students but also those in film media studies theatreand fine arts Therefore the centre juggles many different perform-ance and teaching functions It includes a concert hall a studio the-atre a film screening room a multipurpose rehearsal room and aproduction studio as well as teaching spaces for various departments

The projectrsquos success was possible thanks to a remarkable contributionof $31 million from Alfred and Isabel Bader Alfred Bader is a QueensUniversity alumnus having obtained two bachelorrsquos degrees in chem-istry and history as well as a masterrsquos degree in chemistry The Baders arelong-time philanthropists and the backers of several scholarships atQueens The family also manages an art gallery made up of their ownprivate collection The new hall at a total cost of $72 million was namedin honour of Mrs Bader

THE ARRIVAL The first things a visitor to The Isabelsees are its modern architecture andits subtle marriage with the historicparts of the building The historic na-ture of the original stone buildingswhich in the past served several pur-poses including a brewery and sta-bles could not be altered Thearchitects therefore seamlessly in-corporated the old stone buildingsinto the glass and stainless steel ofthe new one The hall is a work of artin itself The acoustics in the concerthall are almost perfect

From the hallrsquos foyer visitors havea breathtaking view of Lake OntarioThe exterior layout including theback patio has also been gorgeouslydone creating the effect of land jutting into the water

THE HALLThe hall seats 566 and is ideal for recitalssmall ensembles orchestras or choirs An all-wood interior means exquisite acoustics

ldquoWe wanted to create a hall where each mem-ber of the audience feels like theyrsquore sittingnext to the musicians on stagerdquo says Joe Solway an acoustician from Arup A listenerwould be pleasantly surprised to hear thesound of the piano for example as if they wereattending a private concert

On each side of the parterre two sections ofboxes run along the whole length of the hall Abalcony as well as a section of seats facing theconductor can serve as extra space for largechoirs

For many neophytes of modern acousticsthe placement of each wooden insertion seems random creating an

ldquoaged antiquerdquo look But everything is calculated to the millimetre TheArup team has a sound laboratory at its New York offices and softwarethat allows it to recreate the exact acoustics using a model of the roomIn this way each sonic and architectural detail has been thought out

ldquoEach of our decisions should preserve the essence of the project ahall of international calibrerdquo says Takeshi Tornier the person responsible for the project at Snoslashhetta

The hall is equipped with variable acoustics thanks to an integratedsystem of wall curtains that can be deployed They can thus accom-modate classical music jazz rock and pop as well as film projectionsas planned during construction

THE ACOUSTICSThe hallrsquos acoustics are perfect for a piano recital especially Frenchrepertoire Bass notes sound especially good with perfectly percepti-ble harmonies The hall is completely soundproof even with regardsto lighting and ventilation in fact the acoustics are so good that youcan hear the hammers of the piano striking the strings mdashwhich can bea bit distracting

The hall is ideal for chamber music ensembles neither too large nortoo small The advantage of the acoustics is that it is possible to heareach musician individually The resulting sound could be comparedto what a sound engineer might hear in the studio One important fea-ture of the centre is its rehearsal hall which was acoustically designedto match the performance hall exactly In rehearsal musicians canhear exactly what will be heard in performance and thus avoid anysurprises

The combination of strings and piano fits well with the hall How-ever an instrument like the piano seems to easily overpower a stringensemble Itrsquos therefore necessary to pay attention to the sonic equi-librium

The Isabel is without a doubt an acoustic gem where chambermusic and vocal music will both be at their best It remains to be seenwhether jazz pop or rock will fare equally well One thing is for sureThe Isabel will henceforth be a splendid jewel of the city of Kingston
