The Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra presents a programme of new intercultural music for chamber ensembles. Witness the world premiere of several brand new works by up-and-coming composers who have participated in our 2016-17 Sounds Global Composers' Workshop at Capilano University, performed by VICO musicians Jun Rong (erhu), Milan Milosevic (tárogató), Sina Ettehad (kamanche), Finn Manniche (cello), Hamin Honari (tombak) and Willy Miles-Grenzberg (voice). This is chamber music with a colourful fusion twist. Join us for some music without borders!
Note: this concert is part of the VICOs participation in Welcome to the Arts, an initiative of the Canada Council for the Arts, thanks to which arts organizations across Canada can offer free access to their 2016/17 programming for recently-arrived Syrian refugees. If you are associated with an individual, group or organization that is sponsoring a Syrian family, and you are interested in obtaining complimentary tickets to this concert, please contact us at info@vi-co.org.
