What would you do if the story everyone told you about yourself wasn’t the whole truth?
Siegfried is a coming-of-age story wrapped inside myth, memory, power, and destiny. A young man raised in isolation sets out to discover where he came from, who shaped his life, and what kind of person he wants to become.
You do not need to know Wagner.
You do not need to know the Ring Cycle.
You just need to be willing to feel something.

📺 Capsule Cours Classica | Ep05 : Strauss, le remède Allemand quand ton âme manque de nutriment !
🤯 Ouf! Ton cerveau déborde d’alertes, de stress, de bruit… pis entre deux nouvelles anxiogènes, tu scrolles des vidéos de chiens qui dansent. Ça te fait sourire deux secondes. Mais après? T’as comme un creux.
Normal.
On est sous-alimenté en grandeur.
Et si le remède venait d’ailleurs? D’un certain Richard Strauss.
En 1948, à 84 ans, il regarde un monde brisé par deux guerres. Il aurait pu écrire la colère. Il choisit autre chose : les Quatre derniers Lieder. Quatre adieux d’une beauté désarmante.
Pas du bruit.
Pas de distraction.
De la beauté. Pure.
Cette beauté on la présente au Festival en concert le 3 juin avec une voix d’exception 🤩 : @karina_gauvin .
Une présence, une profondeur, une humanité qui te ramènent à l’essentiel.
À la direction 🪄 : @simonrivardconductor qui sait exactement comment faire naître cette lumière-là.

📰 Reviews for conductor Simon Rivard for Orchestre classique de Montréal’s Soirée d'opérettes viennoises.
“Under the baton of Simon Rivard… the OCM resonated with vibrant authority. It was a veritable feast of excellence… all conducted with perfect mastery by Rivard” - Artzé
“The work of the orchestra was impeccable and Rivard visibly gave it his all, among other things in the Pizzicato-Polka which he conducted with a good dose of originality.” - Pieuvre
Bravo, Simon! 👏

The river becomes silent 🌊
the heart turns to ice
pity the poor girl
how it storms but there is no rain
All you can hear is the silence of
the rocks against the river’s rush 🌊

Dean Artists is thrilled to announce that the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra has appointed conductor Simon Rivard as their next Music Director.
Simon was one of four finalists in the NSO’s search process, visiting St. John’s to conduct their Masterworks 1 program in September 2024, and Sinfonia 2 in January 2025.
Born in Montréal, Simon Rivard studied violin performance and orchestral conducting at the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal and McGill University. He is the Music Director of the Edmonton Opera, and he has conducted orchestras across North America and Europe, such as Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, Opéra de Montréal, Orchestre Métropolitain, Orchestre symphonique de Québec, the Verbier Festival Chamber Orchestra (Switzerland), and the Göteborgs Symfoniker (Sweden). He has collaborated with artists such as Barbara Hannigan, Kerson Leong, Daniel Lozakovich, Matt Haimovitz, Charles Richard-Hamelin, and Julie Boulianne, among others. From 2018 to 2022, he was the Resident Conductor of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, where he was mentored by Gustavo Gimeno and Sir Andrew Davis.
Bravo, Simon! 👏
