Richard Strauss – Metamorphosen
Giovanni Battista Pergolesi – Stabat Mater
Join us and experience a concert of rare emotional resonance and spiritual depth. At its heart lies Richard Strauss’s Metamorphosen. In poignant counterpoint, Pergolesi’s radiant Stabat Mater offers a timeless reflection on sorrow and solace, scored for two voices, strings, and continuo. Together, these two masterpieces create an unforgettable arc — from devastation to hope, grief to grace.
Led by the acclaimed Canadian Jean-Marie Zeitouni, this program features Thirteen Strings in an expanded ensemble of superb string players, soprano Mireille Asselin and mezzo-soprano Mireille Lebel.
