SUMMARY:Sustenance
DESCRIPTION:SUSTENANCE\nA Program of Premières\nElation Pauls Violin\, Serouj Kradjian Piano\nWith Guests David Braid Piano\, Karen Sunabacka Narration \nJan 10\, 2024 – 7:30pm\nChalmers House\n20 St. Joseph St.\nToronto\, ON \n~~~~~~~~~~ \nAbout the program: \nWhat sustains you? Us? Our planet? What happens when sustenance is absent? From the energy and joy that the interactive elements of play and dance ignite to themes of internal sustenance provided by the divine and more tangible elements of food and water\, this program of premieres explores personal and collective sources. \nSUSTENANCE marks a new life chapter born out of the days of isolation and silence of 2020. With the drastic and sudden all-encompassing change experienced\, I was forced to spend much introspective time. Becoming disconsolate with the (lack of) societal contribution I was making as a violinist\, I became invested in exploring new avenues for connection. With the encouragement of some close friends and colleagues\, I imagined a program of 21st century Canadian music for violin and piano based on the theme of sustenance\, with the intention to commission pieces from some of my favourite composers. In spring of 2023 I was awarded a Create and Explore grant from the Canada Council for the Arts and it is a great honour and privilege to work with the composers and pianists being presented today.\n~ Elation\n~~~~~~~~~~ \nProgram: \n\nSerouj Kradjian (b. 1973) Sari Aghtchig (Girl from the Mountain)\nfor Violin and Piano (2023) *World Premiere\nFor Elation Pauls\, commissioned with support from the Canada Council for the Arts.\nCarmen Braden (b. 1985) Foxy Fox’s Musical Games for Violin and Piano (2018)\nCommissioned by the 2018 Eckhardt-Gramatté National Music Competition.

SUMMARY:Dance of Shadows
DESCRIPTION:Doors open: 7:00 PM\nShow Starts: 7:30 PM\nAdvance Tickets are Only Available On Eventbrite\nTickets at the Door: $30 \n  \nKamancello\, comprised of Shahriyar Jamshidi and Raphael Weinroth-Browne\, is an East-meets-West duo whose music transcends genres and cultural boundaries. Their highly evocative improvised performances unite the Kurdish kamanche with the classical cello while traveling beyond both musical traditions. \nThe duo has made waves with performances at Montreal’s Place des Arts for Festival du Monde Arabe\, the Canadian Opera Company\, the Aga Khan Museum’s concert series\, the National Arts Centre\, Shenkman Arts Centre\, and the Cello Biennale Amsterdam. \nRecorded in one take\, their self-titled debut album\, which includes 6 improvised pieces\, has been met with unanimous critical acclaim. In May 2019\, Kamancello made their orchestral debut performing their own double concerto “Convergence Suite” with the Windsor Symphony Orchestra to an enthusiastic sold-out audience. Following the release of their second album\, Kamancello II: Voyage in the summer of 2019\, the duo travelled to Newfoundland’s west coast for a week-long residency where they collaborated with local musicians. Kamancello’s third full-length album Of Shadows was released in 2020. In January 2024\, they will make their debut with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. \nIn this fully improvised concert\, you will hear rich lyricism and microtonal ornamentation in long\, exploratory pieces that “feel their way forward from quiet drones to chugging\, propulsive rhythms\, and intricate counterpoint.” -Musicworks Magazine \nKamancello proves “that cultures can mingle without losing their distinct identities\, and that diversity inspires richness. The national origin doesn’t matter; we can all hear unity in these grooves.” -A Closer Listen
