Synopsis

[PROGRAM] A Feast of Colors, Messiaen Amidst a French music festival unfolding throughout the month of July, this program focuses intensively on the musical world of Olivier Messiaen, a towering mountain range of modern music. By deeply examining the core axes that permeate his entire body of work—roots in Catholic faith, the song of birds, and his unique rhythmic system—we will collectively confirm the artistic milestones established by Messiaen. This will be a time to deeply encounter the dazzling feast of colors, featuring innovative melodies and harmonies that transcend the boundaries of tradition, and the spiritual resonance reached by post-war French music. *This lecture will feature a lecture and performance by pianist Suyeon Lim, joined by pianist Yukyung Ji. *A wine party will follow the lecture.
