SUMMARY:Memories Beyond the Grave
DESCRIPTION:Memories Beyond The Grave\, composed by Michael Donovan\, follows the close sibling relationship between Francois René de Chateaubriand (1768-1848) and Lucile de Chateaubriand (1764-1804)\, a bond strengthened through their love of nature during childhood and adolescence. Numerous poems and letters by Lucile and René are woven into excerpts from François René’s world-famous autobiography Mémoires d’outre tombe. Sung and spoken in both French and English\, Donovan’s fusion of contemporary and lush Romantic textures transports us into the magical and tumultuous world of these two siblings\, masterfully staged and performed by a stellar ensemble of singers\, instrumentalists and creative team. \nSingers:\nDoug MacNaughton (Baritone)  as François René de Chateaubriand\nMaureen Batt (Soprano) as Lucile and The Moon \nChamber Ensemble:\nCindy Thong Piano/Harpsichord\nSibylle Marquardt  Flute\nNorman Adams  Cello\nTim Crofts  Synthesizers\, Electronic instruments \nChorus of Stars: \nGabriella Bell-Divincenzo\nSarah Helen Storms\nSarah Hu-A-Kam\nNicole Hamilton \nCreative Team\nStage director: David Overton\nMovement director: Veronique MacKenzie\nProjection design: Mackenzie Cornfield \nMusic director: Michael Donovan\nComposer: Michael Donovan
