Songs of Invisible Summer Star on CD

Carmen Braden is a composer and performer from Yellowknife Northwest Territories. In her music Carmen explores elements of the sub-Arctic environment (and humans as one of those elements) through her human senses and imaginings, seeking beauty and transformation in small details, vast landscapes and subtle soundscapes. Her works have been played by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, James Ehnes, the Gryphon Trio, the Penderecki Quartet, the Elmer Iseler Singers, Stratford Theatre Festival, Canadian Chamber Choir, the Land's End Ensemble, and the Eckhardt-Gramatté National Music Competition. As a performer, Carmen has played intimate theatres and main stage festivals, and is "growing into the role of acoustic ambassador of the Canadian Subarctic" (Musicworks). She released her first studio album, Ravens, in 2017 on Centrediscs with the Canadian Music Centre.
