Champion of contemporary music in Quebec, Louise Bessette closes the concert series presented in connection with Lyonel Feininger: From Manhattan to the Bauhaus with a programme composed of two pieces inspired by the artist’s works: Feininger Impulse and Bilder keiner Ausstellung by German composer Kurt Dietmar Richter (born in 1931).

Two of Feininger’s fugues will complete the programme. Images of Feininger’s paintings will be projected during the concert.
