A powerful literary anthology exploring sound, music, and listening across cultures.
From award-winning Laberinto Press comes the magnum opus to their Beyond the Senses series with their immersive, resonant, and emotionally complex collection of stories by Canadian-born and immigrant authors.
Beyond the Concert Hall is a polyphonic, uplifting exploration of sound within twenty-two stories, ranging from flamenco to musical therapy, and written by award-winning and up-and-coming Canadian- born and immigrant authors. This collection invites readers to slow down, to listen to each other, and to rediscover the everyday acoustics that shape who we are.
This anthology has a multicultural sonic quality that is evocative of sound artist Janet Cardiff's choral installations, the experimental documentary 32 Sounds, and the emotional and character-driven narrative of the film Sound of Metal. It is immersive, resonant, and attuned to the emotional complexity of how we hear our world. This latest sensory offering in the Beyond The Senses series by award-winning Laberinto Press invites us to close our eyes and be present, existing, for a moment, within the sounds that make up our world.
Beyond the Concert Hall is a book with staying power due to its invitation to sit still and experience our surroundings, to listen not just for survival, but for beauty--an innately human activity that transcends and embraces differences.
This multi-genre, cross-generational range ensures strong sales across regional markets. Its focus on sound makes it an excellent choice for music lovers, art audiences, and educators teaching creative nonfiction, Sound Studies, Canadian Studies, or Canadian literature.
