Liberté
In a world increasingly fragmented by political boundaries, ideological divides, and the weight of unhealed wounds, the Canberra International Music Festival reminds us that Liberté is not simply the lifting of restrictions but a powerful, resonant force that emerges from our collective willingness to listen.
Liberté emerges like a melody unbound, sustained through thick silence, quivering in the delicate dance of harmony and dissonance.
Through music shaped by histories of oppression, territorial disputes, and censorship, we rediscover the essence of listening—not just to reply but to understand. Like a performance, Liberté thrives in the interplay of diverse forces: each note essential, each pause intentional, and every expression deserving of respect.
By embracing the past, engaging with the present, and listening with open hearts, we find that true Liberté does not demand agreement but creates a space where every voice is given the freedom to be heard.
