Description
How can music give voice to a history that has been denied? Pianist and composer Eve Egoyan explores this question through In Stone, a deeply personal work shaped by her family's connection to the Armenian Genocide. Blending piano, her own voice and AI-generated sound, Egoyan turns to music to confront silence, memory and denial, and to imagine nature itself as a witness to history. Eve was the JHI's 2025-26 Artist in Residence.
