SUMMARY:Olivier Messiaen’s "La Nativité du Seigneur"
URL:http://www.harbourliving.ca/event/olivier-messiaens-la-nativit-du-seigneur/
LOCATION:Christ Church Cathedral :: 930 Burdett Avenue Victoria, V8V 3G8
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>French organist and composer Olivier Messiaen wrote his landmark piece in 1935, and it is a thoroughly modernist take on the Christmas story. His shepherds play pipes, his angels dance playfully, and his depiction of the arrival of the Word of God (&ldquo;Dieu parmi nous&rdquo;) is quite simply earth shattering. The Cathedral&rsquo;s Director of Music, Donald Hunt, plays the mighty Wolff organ. Admission by donation.</p>
