On November 8, Ensemble Intercontemporain will honour Rebecca Saunders with a portrait concert and the French premiere of her Triptych, Skin, Scar and Skull, at Paris Philharmonie. The ensemble – led by it’s musical director, Pierre Bleuse – will be joined by soprano Juliet Fraser.

The Triptych – Skin (2016), Scar (2019), and Skull (2023) – was nourished by Saunders' deep fascination about “exploring the physical and carnal quality of sound”, as well as “the physical and carnal impact that music can have on the listener”.

The performance will be recorded and broadcast by France Musique.
