SUMMARY:Trio Uchida-Crozman-Chiu
DESCRIPTION:PIcture: Robert Uchida\, violin; Cameron Crozman\, cello; Philip Chiu\, piano \nPerforming works by Sergei Rachmaninoff\, Olivier Messiaen\, Toru Takemitsu\, and Maurice Ravel \n\n\nJoin us for an evening of profound emotion and stunning artistry as violinist Robert Uchida\, cellist Cameron Crozman\, and pianist Philip Chiu come together for a program that spans diverse musical landscapes. These three musicians—each a multiple prize winner and a Halifax audience favourite—bring to life Sergei Rachmaninoff’s “Trio élégiaque No. 1 in G minor\,” a work of haunting beauty and expressive depth\, alongside Olivier Messiaen’s transcendent “Louange à l’Éternité de Jésus” and “Louange à l’immortalité de Jésus\,” both of which offer meditative reflections on eternity and immortality. Japanese composer Toru Takemitsu’s “Between Tides” adds atmospheric textures\, evoking the natural world with its evocative sounds. The program also features Maurice Ravel’s “Piano Trio in A Minor\,” a masterpiece blending French elegance with emotional depth and harmonic innovation. With the virtuosic talents of Uchida\, Crozman\, and Chiu\, this performance promises to be a compelling exploration of both timeless and contemporary works. Season Sponsor: Nice Moves / Red Door Realty. \nThis performance is made possible with the generous support of Deborah Fraser.\n \nTickets

SUMMARY:Quatuor Cobalt
DESCRIPTION:Reflections of Time\nQuatuor Cobalt presents a program that bridges musical eras with vibrant originality. This spirited Canadian ensemble\, praised for its bold creativity and refined sound\, showcases works by trailblazing women composers\, each piece enriched with distinct depth and character. Maddalena Laura Lombardini Sirmen’s “Quartet No. 2 in B-flat Major” reveals her classical poise and 18th-century virtuosity. Alicia Terzian’s “Tres Piezas” conjures a vivid emotional landscape shaped by her Argentine and Armenian heritage.
