Prize-winning pianist 𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗱 𝗣𝗼𝘁𝘃𝗶𝗻 is a versatile performer with an interest in a wide range of repertoire. His imaginative programs seamlessly combine standard repertoire and contemporary music, with a focus on Canadian composers. He joins the 𝗣𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗱 with impressive experience interpreting major works from the Canadian keyboard canon.

Of 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀’ 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗼 𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗮, Potvin reflects, “Harry Somers was just 20 years old when he wrote his first Sonata, shortly after being discharged from the military at the close of World War II. He dedicated it to his friend Dudley Garrett Jr., who was killed in action in 1942. In the Sonata we hear bells tolling for the lost, guns blasting, and a relentless march to oblivion. It is remarkable how mature Somers’ artistic voice was at this early age, no doubt affected by his experience witnessing the tragedy of war. A century after Somers was born, unfortunately the subject matter of this work is no less prevalent.”

Structure creates freedom.

Take a listen to how Keiko Devaux talks intuition, form, and balancing careful planning with the courage to reshape a piece as it evolves.

Composition that leaves room for discovery.

Available to listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Sometimes creativity isn’t about choosing between structure and intuition…it’s about trusting both.

“i create a very regimented structure that I then allow myself to destroy later... I need pieces to be intuitive and I need to be able to make changes. They need to feel right, but I can’t just go into the void.”

There’s something powerful about building a foundation, then giving yourself permission to reshape it.

Maybe that’s true of more than just music.

Have you ever found that your best work came after letting go of your original plan?
