Festival Accès Asie, in collaboration with Le Vivier, is proud to present you with an exceptionnal concert of classical music. Duo Ventapane--Martin Karlicek on piano and Mana Shiraishi on violin--with mezzo-soprano Marie-Annick Béliveau, introduce us to works from Japan and Canada, including composer Elliot Weingerber’s cycle of songs inspired by the poems of the English writer Thomas Hardy.

 

This concert, highlighting the many timbers and colors of the instruments, presents a work for solo piano by Kentaro Taki, a pioneer of classical music in Japan, and a violin sonata by Canadian composer Stewart Grant. The concert’s highlight, As We Stood Then, by Canadian composer Elliot Weingerber, combines Weingerber's Japanese experience with Western classical music traditions in a five-song cycle set to poems by Thomas Hardy. As a complement to the program, works by Sandeep Bhagwati and Erwin Schulhoff will also be performed.

Marie-Annick Béliveau has been active on the Montreal musical stage for over 20 years. Her recent performance of Scelsi’s solo “performance opera,” Les Chants du Capricorne, under the direction of Pauline Vaillancourt, was universally praised by critics, earning her an Opus Award for the Musical event of the year from the Conseil Québécois de la musique. She has made a name for herself as an accomplished performer of the contemporary repertoire, premiering over 30 works in Canada and Europe. She can regularly be heard on CBC and has made several award-winning recordings. Equally active on the classical stage, she performs as a soloist with several ensembles and has participated in many soundtracks, such as The Red Violin and Paul à Québec. Marie-Annick Béliveau is also very active in her community as a teacher in charge of classical vocal instruction at UQAM, at Camp Musical Père Lindsay, and CAMMAC music center, and as a performer for La Société pour les Arts en Milieux de Santé.
