Don’t miss this gorgeous afternoon concert at Heritage Hall.

Writing about the “deft combination of Romantic, minimalist, and avant-garde influences” in composer Lisa Bielawa’s music, The New Yorker blog posted about a recent premiere that “Bielawa walked into the hall as a professional, but she may well have walked out a star: the piece caused that kind of excitement.”

Discover the beauty of Lisa Bielawa’s music alongside two mesmerizing classics by Maurice Ravel: the Sonata for Violin & Cello and Chansons madécasses. This intimate chamber music programme features seven extraordinary musicians:

• Susan Narucki, Grammy Award-winning soprano
• Dale Barltrop, violinist and concertmaster with the Vancouver Symphony
• Ariel Barnes, cellist and a leading soloist and chamber musician
• Laura Barron, one of North America’s greatest flutists
• François Houle, one of Canada’s finest — and most diverse — clarinetists
• Rena Sharon, a Canadian pianist described as a “national treasure”
• Rachel Iwaasa, one of Vancouver’s most remarkable contemporary pianists
