Once again this year it is my pleasure to sing a whole bunch of fine Canadian-made choral music with the Capital Chamber Choir at the Music & Beyond festival. There is really great stuff on this program, including a good deal by composers from right here in Ottawa.
The centrepiece of this program will be Nicholas Piper's excellent The Delight of Paradise, seeing its première performance. It is intricate, moody, evocative, and expansive stuff — a real delight to sing.
Other fine works by:
- John Gordon Armstrong
- David Keyes
- Andrea MacWilliams
- Timothy Mott
- Kelly-Marie Murphy
- Tracey A. Stabback
Come hear what modern Canadian choral music sounds like. You're going to love it!
