Canadian Music Centre August 2024

Opening with Canadian composer Dinuk Wijeratne's 'Two Pop Songs on Antique Poems', a humorous and highly referential modern classic, the hour-long show will cumulate in a performance of Franz Schubert's iconic and fiendishly difficult 'Death and the Maiden' quartet. A unique seating arrangement around the quartet means that every seat in the house is the best seat. This will bring you closer than ever to a collection of museum-worthy instruments, including a 1717 Stradivarius and a Chanot violin on loan from the Canada Council for the Arts, and a priceless Tononi cello, played by some of the best young musicians from Canada, all of whom are embarking on international performance careers.
Musicians:
Emma Meinrenken and Astrid Nakamura, violin
Toby Winarto, viola
Matthew Christakos, cello
