L'Orchestre symphonique de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard présente : Révolution
Date
Le 15 novembre 2026

2: 30pm
Lieu
Théâtre familial Sobey
On November 15, be prepared to be rocked out of your seat when the orchestra closes the Revolution-themed concert with the daunting and towering 11th Symphony of Dmitiri Shostakovich, ‘The year 1905.’ Recounting the story of a people fed up with tyranny and oppression, this sonically descriptive work is terrifying for its entire fourth movement played as loud as the orchestra can deliver.
Canada may not be known as the site of a major revolution, but Our Story chronicles a country seeking its own identity and resolving fundamental questions. To set the scene of Canada’s story and revolution, Maritimer Emily Doolittle’s ‘Falling Still’ opens the concert with a gentle exploration of sounds from natural processes – some the result of choices and preferences by living beings. Then the orchestra launches into Franz Liszt’s dark, yet triumphant ‘A Hero’s Funeral,’ telling the tale of a heroism against terrible odds, and ending the afternoon with Shostakovich’s revolutionary bang.
Le partenariat entre l'Orchestre symphonique de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard et le Centre des arts de la Confédération est soutenu par le Programme de partenariat communautaire Lou MacEachern, qui contribue à favoriser des collaborations significatives au sein de la communauté artistique de l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard.
