interview, le premier CD soliste d'Amy Horvey, trompettiste de la Saskatchewan, installée à Montréal. Son CD, solo trompette, nous amène dans un univers sonore qui met en perspective le féminisme, l'art du conte et l'expérimentation.
Malasartes a été fond/ par Damian Nisenson, qui en assume la direction artistique, et a été conçue comme un lieu de rencontre entre les sons originaux, inspirés et profonds d'une communauté de musiciens créateurs, et les oreilles qui allaient garder ce trésor, qui rend la vie plus heureuse et plus belle.
Trois ans et 12 CDs plus tard, nous sommes fiers du travail accompli, d'avoir pu apporter au monde et à la vie de quelques milliers de personnes, nous y compris, un petit grain de bonheur, d'authenticité et de beauté. Et ce n’est qu’un début!
World Premiere Performances of Meira Warshauer Music
World Premiere Performances of Meira Warshauer’s Concerto for Shofar/Trombone and Orchestra in Wilmington and Brevard, NC, and Columbia, SCTekeeyah (a call) - Concerto for Shofar/Trombone and Orchestra, will be given its World Premiere performances with shofar/trombone virtuoso Haim Avitsur on the following dates.

Tekeeyah (a call) is the first concerto ever written for shofar/trombone
soloist and orchestra and was commissioned by a consortium of orchestras
that also includes the Western Piedmont Symphony (Hickory, NC), John
Gordon Ross, Music Director and Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, Neal
Gittleman, Music Director.
Tekeeyah (a call) during a residency at
the MacDowell Colony in Spring of 2008, has written this about the
piece, "I believe our time calls for an awakening to our true essence as
human beings. The shofar (ram’s horn), with its natural power and
centuries of service in calling Jews to awaken, can be an important
instrument in this collective renewal of purpose. The trombone's breadth
of range and dynamics complements and extends the expressive capacity of
the shofar.”
