Quatuor Bozzini: Du Nord

Montréal’s Quatuor Bozzini and Toronto’s Continuum present two in-person concerts of exceptional contemporary chamber music to welcome back our live audience.

Internationally-renowned Quatuor Bozzini celebrates its return to Toronto (and the Music Gallery!) with an all-Canadian program. Hot off the press, Hexbreakers (2022) by Nicole Lizée features grooves and glitches performed by multi-tasking quartet musicians. Michael Oesterle’s String Quartet No. 3 ‘Alan Turing’ (2010) is inspired by lives of scientists; their focus and creativity, their work methods, and their adversity. We return to nature and a call to solidarity with Tanya Tagaq’s arctic landscapes in Sivunittinni (2015) and with bird migration in du nord (2020) by quartet member Alissa Cheung.
