“Ghosts beneath my Fingertips (for Viva)” (2021)

Eve Egoyan performs her composition “Ghosts beneath my Fingertips (for Viva)”. Recorded live on April 8, 2022, Koerner Hall, Toronto, during the 21C Music Festival. The full performance includes eight newly composed works created by Eve between 2019 to 2021. "I received a grant to travel to Armenia – the place of my ancestral heritage – to visit for the first time, to meet composers there, and select works by living Armenian composers to perform. When COVID-19 delayed this travel, I decided to reach into a collection of songs by the Armenian composer Komitas (who was also the most important collector of Armenian folk songs) to write a work for myself. Using an extremely subjective process, I selected fragments from the songbook and created the compositional fabric keeping the original keys of the songs and allowing myself to create using material based on the pitches within each song. It was my desire to avoid obscuring the delicacy of Armenian folk tunes with western European harmony. This piece is dedicated to my daughter, Viva, and includes her wonderful voice.” For a link to the complete show please visit Eve’s site: http://eveegoyan.com
