Record Attendance Set for Winnipeg New Music Festival Opening Weekend

The Winnipeg New Music Festival resounded with an exceptional opening weekend, infused by the thrilling presence of living legend Philip Glass and attracting audiences numbering over 4,000 in total. Opening night on Saturday, January 27 featured the Canadian premieres of Glass' Symphony No. 11 and Bjork's Family, as well as new works by Canadian icon Michael Snow, and WSO composer-in-residence Harry Stafylakis. Sunday evening saw an equally enthusiastic crowd for a transporting performance of Glass' complete Piano Etudes featuring pianists Jenny Lin, Vicky Chow, Jonas Sen, local favourite Madeline Hildebrand, and Philip Glass himself. And the enthusiasm continued for Monday night's concert, Through the Looking Glass, at Westminster United Church, which had been sold out weeks in advance. Winnipeg choirs Polycoro and Camerata Nova presented excerpts from Philip Glass' ioperas, along with the world premiere of Orphic Hymn by Iceland's Johann Johannsson and several other stunning works in a powerfully-eclectic concert exploring identity, politics, and spirituality.
