"Dark Tales" Montreal
Duo Perdendosi explores an immersive fairy tale experience combining the arts of written, visual, and musical storytelling. Hear works by Turkish, Sri Lankan, Chinese, Japanese, Canadian, and European composers - all selected to accompany an original fairy tale written by the duo.
This program intersects the topics of research being actively pursued by the ensemble: the dark-cute aesthetic found in macabre fairy tales and the science of embodied experiences. With music and visuals, this is an immersive concert experience.
Au carrefour des thèmes de recherche explorés par l'ensemble, ce programme voyage dans l'esthétisme à la fois sombre et mignonne des contes de fées macabres et dans la science de l'incarnation des expériences.
Le duo Perdendosi aime parcourir l'expérience immersive du monde féérique en alliant l'écriture, l'art visuel et la musique dans la narration de récits. Venez entendre des œuvres de compositeur·rice·s de la Turquie, du Sri Lanka, de la Chine, du Japon, du Canada et d'Europe, toutes choisies pour accompagner un conte de fées imaginé par le duo.

Experiencing this music is about exploring what home means for each of us individually, and allowing ourselves to be moved collectively by that feeling. By the nostalgia, the joy and the pain, love and grief, happiness and sadness. Everything. Allowing us to notice and remember again what we miss, where we want to be, how beautiful that all is. Even if we don’t find the answers, even if we cannot return to that place, or if home was never a safe place to begin with … we can still all bond over this deep longing for home. That in itself is more than plenty.

Montreal - Kin Musique
What is home? What does home feel like? Or rather, what would you like it to feel like? And how can we remember and recreate those feelings through music?
“Da Capo” is the musical storytelling of navigating an ever changing relationship with home. And it is as much our story as it is yours.
If we can imagine it, we can create it. Even if only in fractured pieces, in moments, even if just here together during this hour of musical utopia, we can grow towards the values and principles of home. Of kindness. Of simply existing together. Company, community, kinship.
Music allows us
to remember a feeling,
and to feel that feeling.
Come join us in this co-creating this story.
Come find kinship within each other.
