ABOUT

FAWN Chamber Creative is a two-time Dora Award Nominated experimental music and opera collective that explores the intersections between art forms and audiences. Known for their daring explorations and riveting live performances, FAWN prioritizes cross-disciplinary collaboration to create new works and audience experiences that defy tradition and blur the lines between genres.

 

FAWN Creations & Productions

FAWN commissions new operas by some of Canada’s most thought provoking composers, collaborating with some of the freshest minds in the industry. Past FAWN productions include Adam Scime’s and Ian Koiter’s l’homme et le ciel, Aaron Gervais’ and Paul van Dyck’s The Harvester, David Foley’s Cryptomnesia, and the triple composer opera Pandora by librettist David James Brock and composers Joseph Glaser, David Storen and Kit Soden.

FAWN is dedicated to exploring the ways in which opera can be developed, including using devising and collective creations methods, to expand their understanding of the creative process beyond traditional operatic conventions.

Convergence Theory Series

FAWN has a particular interest in exploring art music with non-classical music artists. Cross-genre performances are another way we reach out to other communities and introduce new audiences to the exciting potential of today’s classical music.
