Mozart with an Afro-Cuban Beat

On September 11 and 12, 2021, Place des Arts and the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal will celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Maison symphonique de Montréal with a series of ten free short concerts and four discussions. Discover the exceptional acoustics of the Maison symphonique with a wind quintet from the OSM, who will explore the universe of Valerie Coleman inspired by folklore and Afro-Cuban rhythms. In the Afro-Cuban Concerto, the rhythms and musical languages of Africa, the Americas and the Caribbean engage in a dense, highly energetic dialogue with each other.
