More details here. \nThe Trail & District Arts Council presents Janelle Fung and Marina Thibeault: Invisible Cities performing classical pieces for piano and viola in The Griff at The Bailey Theatre on Friday\, February 9 at 7:30 pm as part of our Classical series. \nCelebrated concert duo Marina Thibeault (viola) and Janelle Fung (piano) delight audiences across Canada\, the United States\, and Europe with their elegant\, spellbinding performances and engaging presence. \nTheir program “Invisible Cities” includes: \nInvisible Cities by British composer Charlotte Bray\, one of the most esteemed and in-demand composers of her generation. Her music is exhilarating\, inherently vivid\, and richly expressive with lyrical intensity. She won an Ivor Novello Award in 2019 (Solo or Duo) for Invisible Cities\, where fragments of melody form a connecting thread through the score\, linking movements together. The work is inspired by the novel ‘Invisible Cities’ by Italo Calvino. \nSonata op.11 no:4 Fantaisieby Paul Hindemith\, arguably THE composer for the viola. This sonata’s musical language has a rather unusual form\, with a short introductory movement\, a theme and variations\, and a finale that interrupts the variation-sequence only to resume it later. It suggests the genre of fantasy-sonata cultivated by some of the Romantic composers. \ni>The Sonata for Viola and Piano\, Op. 147 is the last composition by Dmitri Shostakovich. It was completed on July 5\, 1975\, weeks before his death. It is dedicated to Fyodor Druzhinin\, violist of the Beethoven Quartet. \nAbout the Artists: \nMarina Thibeault is a 2023 JUNO Award winner for Classical Album of the year (Large Ensemble) for the album “Viola Borealis”.\nSince being named Radio-Canada’s classical “Revelation” for 2016-2017\, violist Marina Thibeault has become an accomplished soloist and chamber musician playing across genres. Marina’s many performance highlights include Berlioz’s Harold in Italy with Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Orchestre Métropolitain in Montreal and the North American premiere of Peteris Vasks’s concerto with the Sinfonia Toronto. Marina’s first album\, “Toquade” (2017)\, was nominated by the ADISQ and Prix Opus for Album of the Year. \nJanelle Fung – Canadian pianist Janelle Fung is an avid chamber musician\, and has appeared in concert with the Ying Quartet\, New York Woodwind Quintet\, Mark Fewer and Matt Haimovitz\, and tours with Prairie Debut and Jeunesses Musicales du Canada. Her interest in opera has also led to collaborations with Nicole Cabell\, Teresa Stratas\, and William Warfield. Ms. Fung has won numerous national and international competitions\, including the Joanna Hodges International Piano Competition\, the Concours OSM-Standard Life\, the Canadian Music Competition\, and BC Touring Council “Artist of the Year” in 2014. \nLearn more about Marina Thibeault at https://www.marinathibeault.com/en/. \nLearn more about Janelle Fung at https://www.janellefung.com/. \nGeneral Admission.

The highlight of this concert is Max Richter’s masterly recomposition of the “Four Seasons” by Vivaldi\, which takes us to the convergence of past and present. Works by Glass\, Nyman\, Cohen\, Radiohead\, Eno and Einaudi complete this programme of spellbinding simplicity. \nJessica McMann Trio Sunday\, November 5 at 3:00 pm (with afternoon tea service).\nThe Jessica McMann Trio is the instrumental musical project of Jessica McMann\, an Alberta -based Cree (Cowessess\, SK)\, multi-disciplinary artist. Jessica works with diverse musicians to share lesser-known repertoire based around themes of ecology\, spirituality\, and language recovery.
