Musical Interlude: Quartetto Gelato again! This time, from a bit later in their career, we have a track from a project where they paid tribute to Canadian composers. On this track, they play a piece from Howard Cable, who composed many themes for CBC radio and television, and had a longtime association with Canadian Brass. This work isn't what you would normally think of as classical, but QG was always one to stretch boundaries and challenge assumptions. Give it a listen...
"On the Crowsnest Trail," composed by Howard Cable, performed by Quartetto Gelato.

Cautiously optimistic about some of the repertoire in our upcoming concert.
Haven't played this piece by Howard Cable yet, but if it's anything like Snake Fence Country or McIntyre Ranch Country, this one will be great.
