Workshop

Comme le savent tous ceux qui ont passé du temps au bord de la Voie maritime du Saint-Laurent, ce fleuve est loin d'être paisible et tranquille ; il est souvent très bruyant, surtout à l'aube, lorsque les oiseaux commencent à chanter. Guidés par Louise Campbell, les participants découvriront son installation sonore Sources, une installation musicale extérieure inspirée par les Grands Lacs et le fleuve Saint-Laurent, avec des œuvres inspirées par l'avifaune de la baie Georgienne et les grands espaces des Îles-de-la-Madeleine.

As anyone who has spent any time beside the St. Lawrence Seaway knows, this river is anything but peaceful and quiet; it is frequently very noisy, especially at daybreak when birds start to sing. Guided by Louise Campbell, participants will discover her sound installation Sources, an outdoor installation of music inspired by the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River, featuring works inspired by the birdlife of Georgian Bay to the vast open spaces of the Magdalen Islands.
