We are thrilled to introduce the inaugural Luminary Series at the McPherson, a dazzling showcase of exceptional artists bringing their notable projects to Victoria for one-night-only events. Featuring world-class artists including Barbara Hannigan & Bertrand Chamayou, Lawrence Brownlee, and the Gryphon Trio, the Luminary Series at the McPherson promises unforgettable performances and intimate encounters with some of classical music’s most extraordinary talents.

An evening of music with renown artists soprano Barbara Hannigan & pianist Bertrand Chamayou, with special guest appearances by local artists.

With a musical programme featuring Messiaen’s Chants de Terre et de Ciel, Scriabin's Poème-nocturne and Vers la flamme, and John Zorn’s Jumalattaret, be ready to be whisked away on a fascinating and eclectic journey through diverse musical landscapes.

Messiaen's mystical and nature-inspired compositions – rich with complex rhythms, vibrant colors, and mystical themes – create an ethereal and contemplative atmosphere. Scriabin's metaphysical and harmonically adventurous works is dreamy and dramatic, brimming with sensuous textures, innovative harmonies, and a sense of transcendence. Zorn's modern and genre-defying piece is a masterwork in the advent-guarde. It boldly presents a complex tapestry of sound that explores the boundaries of traditional and contemporary music.

Do not miss this one-night-only event!
