Anna Lapwood was absolutely incredible last night. I didn’t want her to finish and it was clear she didn’t want to either! I’ve performed with the Winspear’s Davis organ many times but I’ve never heard it quite like I did last night.

Incredibly thankful to have experienced Anna on that amazing organ. Big props to the Winspear team for making this entirely sold out show (including the gallery!) happen.

I've been debating going to the show tonight at the Blue Chair (the last weekend before they close, and an artist I do enjoy and haven't seen for quite a while). But, uggghhhh this weather, I don't want to go out. But I already didn't go to the show I was looking at for last night, because ugghh, the weather, I didn't want to go out.

I check their website, to see if the show is sold out, anyway:

April 24th, Romi Mayes is on our stage as part of her spring solo tour she is one of my personal favorites! -CANCELLED ROMI IS STUCK IN A BLIZZARD IN SASKATOON.

uggghhhh this weather

At Unbound on Sunday Apr 26, Chronos presents a program of works that highlight new - and Canadian - choral music.

The ensemble is busy rehearsing: here is a clip from Edge of Dawn by Nicholas Ryan Kelly.

Using text from Lola Ridge, the text takes us to the moment dawn starts to break and the natural world slowly comes alive. Themed around resilience, this piece looks to nature's persistence and irrepressible life as inspiration in tough times.

Nicholas was the winner of Chronos' first Composition Competition in 2017. His work "Zoo Nocturnes,” co-commissioned by Chronos and the Vancouver Cantata Singers in 2022, will also be featured on this program..

Join us on Sunday at 7:30 to hear the rest!
