Orchestre de l'Agora will present the Gala de la Terre on June 12 at 8 p.m. at Maison symphonique, under the direction of Conductor Nicolas Ellis.
With the last edition winning the Opus Prize for Musical Event of the Year, the Orchestra promises another unique musical evening, supporting the efforts of local environmental organizations and bringing together on stage 100 musicians and 75 choristers from Petits Chanteurs du Mont-Royal.
A creation by composer Claudie Bertounesque featuring Innu poet Natasha Kanapé Fontaine, electro-acoustic and beluga songs collected near Tadoussac, Innu soprano Elisabeth St-Gelais in Wagner's magnificent Wesendonck Lieder, and Strauss's majestic and grandiose Alpine Symphony are sure to charm you!
