Odawa composer Barbara Croall, Mohawk writer Darren Bonaparte, Indigenous Columbian director Alejandro Ronceria, and the cultural leadership of the Kahnawake community, join forces to create a new multimedia work on a grand scale. Honouring the life and legacy of Saint Kateri Tekakwitha, this new orchestral and theatrical work features solo violin, actress, dancer, chorus, and evocative visuals.
MCO’s Indigenous Voices & Visions is one of the 200 exceptional projects funded through the Canada Council for the Arts’ New Chapter program. With this $35M investment, the Council supports the creation and sharing of the arts in communities across Canada.
