Gagnant du dernier Concours Chopin de Varsovie, le Montréalais Bruce Liu a marqué l’histoire en étant le seul Canadien à remporter cet honneur. Pourson premier concert aux côtés de Yannick Nézet-Séguin, il s’attaque à un répertoire beaucoup plus fougueux : le Concerto pour piano n° 2 de Rachmaninov.

Les premières notes de la saison viendront de l’œuvre de la compositrice Cris Derksen, présentée en première mondiale et qui crée un espace où héritage classique et musique électro côtoient la vision du monde de la nation crie. Sous la direction de Yannick Nézet-Séguin, l’OM poursuit son cycle Sibelius avec la Symphonie n° 2, laquelle puise autant dans la résistance à l’envahisseur que dans le drame de son climat nordique pour offrir une pièce magistrale, où l’atmosphère change en un coup de vent.

Bruce Liu made history at the 18th International Chopin Piano Competition for being the first Canadian to be awarded First Prize. Now he’s returning home to tackle more spirited repertoire: Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2.

The first notes of the season will be from composer Cris Derksen. In its world premiere, Derksen’s piece creates a space where classical and electronic music encounter the Cree Nation worldview. Under the baton of Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the OM will continue its Sibelius symphonic cycle with Symphony No. 2—a masterpiece with tempestuous ambiance, in the spirit of Finnish resistance and dramatic climes.
