Win tickets to Garth Knox, presented by Vancouver New Music
Experience the sounds of an original and exotic instrument — the viola d’amore — in the hands of celebrated, virtuosic soloist Garth Knox. A colorful multi-stringed instrument originating in the European Baroque period, and much favored by Vivaldi, the viola d’amore’s full harmonic resonance and strikingly subtle and seductive sounds can be heard in a mixture of old and new music, masterfully played by Knox.
Specially commissioned pieces by Farshid Samadari* and Donald Stewart* are set between Elizabethan melodies, Baroque variations along with some newer electronic resonances by Olga Neuwirth and Georg Friedrich Haas.
* World Premieres
