In Memoriam: Sofia Gubaidulina (1931–2025)
Ensemble Pi mourns the passing of visionary composer Sofia Gubaidulina, whose daring and deeply spiritual music has left an indelible mark on contemporary music. Her boundless creativity and profound artistic voice challenged conventions and inspired generations of musicians and listeners alike.
We were honored to present her work in our performances, celebrating her fearless exploration of sound and meaning. Her legacy will continue to resonate through her music, which remains as urgent and transformative as ever.
Join us in remembering her by revisiting our concert featuring her work.
