Oktoecho - Saimaniq-Sivumut

For more than 15 years, Oktoecho has helped to share the wealth of Inuit culture with audiences through its boundless creativity. The original creation Saimaniq-Sivumut creates a true alchemy between three gems of this age-old culture: katajjaq, the Inuit drum, and Ayaya singing, while also incorporating Arabic polyrhythms, Japanese and Irish flutes, and electronics.

In conjunction with the new presentation of the Inuit art collection ᐆᒻᒪᖁᑎᒃ uummaqutik: essence of life

A 30-minute pre-concert talk with artists Katia Makdissi-Warren, Nina Segalowitz and Louisa Qaurritaiyuk will take place at 6:30 p.m..

Please note that the Bourgie Hall bar will be open one hour before the concert begins.
