François Dompierre in conversation with Fannie Gaudette, Artistic Director of the Bishop’s University SingersFrançois Dompierre is a composer who has left his mark on both classical and popular music in Quebec. He has created works for orchestras as well as songs we continue to hum, and music for plays, numerous television movies and films. Some of his audio recordings, such as the one for The Decline of the American Empire, have had a lasting impact on the collective imagination. He also promotes music as the host of a radio program on Radio-Canada and through a series of instructional music books used in Quebec schools.
This event is free and open to the community.
We are delighted to François Dompierre for this Donald Lecture ahead of the Bishop’s University Singers’ performance of Dompierre’s Requiem in collaboration with the Sherbrooke Symphony Orchestra.
