Join us at The Chan Centre for a fabulous party celebrating artistic community. Amazing performances of Schubert and Brahms, Vocal Quartets, and a beautiful new cycle by Lloyd Burritt:
MOON LOVES ITS LIGHT/GIANT LILY OF THE AMAZON, written for VISI Faculty Robyn Driedger-Klassen, soprano & Terence Dawson, piano, is based on four exotic poems by Marilyn Lerch. Marilyn will also join us for this premiere.
Start with a glass of wine, relax and enjoy three gorgeous sets of music framed by more wine, appies, and conversation.
Schubert: the young Bohemian who really did live in garrets while sparking the Art Song Revolution.
Schubertiade: a party by his friends who recognized his genius. Many immortal works were premiered in their living rooms during nights of wine, laughter, and wild musical Revelation.
Gemütlichkeit: A comfortable, cosy ambiance.
