Join them for this year’s Vancouver Recital Society Concert featuring Ema Nikolovska, mezzo-soprano, and Sean Shibe, guitar. Two of the most imaginative and daring artists of their generation craft a genre-defying program titled Orlando which traces the legendary troubadour’s journey across centuries and continents, from the medieval Chanson de Roland to Ariosto’s epic poem, and Virginia Woolf’s groundbreaking 1928 novel.
Pre-registrations requested via Western Alumni. Walk-ins also welcome.
This bold and imaginative program explores themes of love, conflict, and identity, weaving together works by Schubert, Glanert, Adès, and others, alongside newly commissioned pieces by Sasha Scott and Cassandra Miller.
A voice masterclass with Ema Nikolovska and a guitar masterclass with Sean Shibe are also planned for Nov. 12.
This concert is part of the Vancouver Recital Society Visiting Artist Series, made possible with a generous gift from alumna Elaine Adair.
The Don Wright Faculty of music is proud to welcome distinguished guest artists visiting for residencies and public masterclasses, as well as those who perform each week during their signature "Fridays @ 12:30" concert series.
