Info for Street Beat Suite

Mit ihrem neuen Werk feiert die Komponistin und Jazz-Pianistin Lorraine Desmairais die Mündung des Sant-Lorenz-Stroms, der die Großen Seen der USA mit dem Nordatlantik verbindet. Mit bildhaften Akzenten und mit einer breiten Palette beschwört Desmarais Erinnerungen an geliebte Landschaften und Menschen in einem assoziativen Klang-Fresko, welches das gesamte Potential des Klaviers in Melodie, Harmonie und Rhythmus ausschöpft.
