A Breathtaking River

A Breathtaking River is an orchestral work that explores the deoxygenation of the St. Lawrence’s deep waters and the silent transformation of its iconic ecosystem. The piece aims to translate an invisible yet crucial phenomenon into music, raising public awareness of its urgency and complexity. This work is part of an art-science collaboration developed in close partnership with research teams from the Transforming Climate Action (TCA) program at the Université du Québec à Rimouski (UQAR).
