Silentio, from the Lamentations of Jeremiah
I will be performing what I think of as my signature piece at the Winnipeg New Music Festival Jan. 28th, 2013 the Lamentations of Jeremiah by Peter-Anthony Togni will be performed with the Elmer Iseler Singers on at the opening night.
The Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra presents this annual festival in the dead of winter in the center of Canada. It is a bold stroke for this visionary group. Currently, the Winnipeg New Music Festival is an incredible undertaking with more than 50 pieces being performed in just 7 days. Since 1992, the Festival has presented 680 works by 266 composers; half of which are Canadian and local composers. It has been the site of 222 world-premieres and continues to challenge the boundaries of all forms of music. Over the past 20 years the attendance has totaled 155,000 averaging 10,300 per year making the New Music Festival one of the highest attended of its kind.
