about

With Unsung Songs, one of Canada's premier vocal improvisers releases a new album alongside a stunning book of graphic scores she created to elicit sonically-searching duos with fellow interpreters like Lina Allemano, Sylvain Darrifourcq, James Falzone, Joshua Zubot, Sissel Vera Petterson, and Didier Petit.

Viviane Houle’s evocative black and white abstractions are "deeply lyrical, generous, entangled, energetic and sparse, offering their chaotic wilderness to an audience whose understanding of image and sound might just be cracked open and changed forever” (Avni Vyas).
