About this event

This Orchestre symphonique de Montréal concert offers a sensory crossing between legend, rhythm, and light, where past and present converse through sounds and imaginings of the Orient. Framed under the OSM’s “Étonnant” badge, the evening juxtaposes the legendary storytelling of Rimsky-Korsakov’s Sheherazade with the gamelan-infused textures of Thierry Pécou’s Cara Bali Concerto. Conductor Dina Gilbert leads the orchestra with narrative verve, while pianist Alexandre Tharaud—dedicatee of Pécou’s concerto—brings refined color and rhythmic vitality to the work.
