In October, Giorgio Magnanensi led a workshop that explored Dante’s Divine Comedy from a symbolic and musicological perspective. Following the workshop, attending students, composers, and performers created new musical and visual pieces inspired by the workshop and Dante’s work.
Join us on December 9 + 10 at noon (PST) on our YouTube channel to watch the live premieres of these new works.
Presented by Vancouver New Music and Vancouver Italian Language School with the generous support of the Consulate General of Italy in Vancouver.
