A series of four concerts will be held during October-November in Canada, as a tribute to Canadian contralto Maureen Forrester (1930-2010), one of the finest voices of her generation, who dazzled audiences worldwide. These concerts will premiere a 15-minute piece specially composed by Howard Shore for the occasion: “L’Aube” for Mezzo-Soprano and Orchestra, with text by his wife, writer Elizabeth Cotnoir.
