SPIRIT AND SONG
Featuring Vicki St. Pierre, contralto
Friday, November 1, 2024, 7:30pm
A renowned contralto whose voice combines clarity of expression and beauty of tone, Vicki St. Pierre is also one of Canada’s great and most spirited musical leaders – an esteemed choral conductor and Provost of Mount Allison University. The focal point of her upcoming concert programme will be an exquisite Bach cantata.
PHANTASM
Featuring David Greenberg, violin
Friday, January 17, 2025, 7:30pm
David Greenberg, baroque violinist and Cape Breton fiddler, leads a program exploring sweet sleep, dreams, and the things that go bump in the night. The program will include selections from Purcell’s incidental music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Vivaldi’s flute concerto “La Notte”, Celtic folk songs, and other night-themed music.
GLORIA
Featuring the Choir of St. John the Divine and vocal soloists under the direction of David Stratkauskas
Sunday, March 2, 2025, 2:00pm
A choral celebration including Vivaldi’s beloved Gloria and Mozart’s youthful and provocatively elegant Missa brevis in Bb, K. 275. Both composers brought the expressivity and drama of theatrical music into their sacred writing to create pieces that are captivating and uplifting with fast-paced changes of mood and colour.
TIME AND SPACE
Saturday, May 10, 2025, 8:00pm
A chamber music program exploring the metaphysical in music. In the Baroque and Classical eras, music was thought to reflect the ordering of the universe, the movement of the emotions within the human body, and intricate mathematical patterning. This program will explore the ways that music can suspend time, measure space, and create kaleidoscopic patterning in sound.
