Andree-Ann Deschenes receives Canada Council support for stunning new multimedia project
The Canada Council for the Arts' mandate is to "foster and promote the study and enjoyment of, and the production of works in, the arts.”
“This grant means that we can complete all the parts of this project the way we originally envisioned it,” says Deschenes. “I’ve made sure to keep them updated as we’re moving through the process so that they know what’s happening with their music … without them and the wonderful music they wrote, none of this would be possible.”Almost all of the composers were able to attend the livestream of the event.
“ gave me a bit of validation in terms of what we were trying to do and that maybe the whole wasn’t as insane as I thought it was … I don’t think I would have received as much funding without all the collaborative aspects of the project which is definitely appealing from a grant officer’s perspective … It’s a testament to the artists that we have here in Sault Ste. Marie,” she says.
With the recordings complete, the album was recently sent for mixing and mastering to Paul Tavenner in Los Angeles, with whom Deschenes has worked before.Finally, Deschenes, Dan Nystedt, and Andrea Pinheiro continued working together on the visual aspect of the project.
Deschenes, who moved to Sault two years ago, realizes that this project is not something that would have likely happened had she not come to this city.
