      Gather Our Dispersed From the Ends of the Earth

      November 10 at the Orpheum Annex

      The Orchid Ensemble celebrates the 70th birthday of composer Moshe Denburg, its long-time collaborator and local world-music-scene leader. Denburg’s own, four-movement El Adon is on the roster. The show draws its name from a new work by Moshe’s nephew Elisha Denburg, while Dailin Hsieh will give the North American premiere of In Midstream for solo zheng (the Chinese zither).

       

      Talking Art

      To November 9

      This series of artist talks will get you into the mood for next week’s Eastside Culture Crawl. It’s an intimate chance to discuss the work in their studios, featuring Paneficio Studios’ Lori Sokoluk and Ray Ophoff Thursday night, the Hamilton Bank Building’s Kate MacDonald and Les Sears on Friday, and more. (See here.)

       

      Friede Auf Erden

      November 9 at Christ Church Cathedral

      In the lead-up to Remembrance Day, the Vancouver Cantata Singers lead a moving journey through choral works about humanity’s quest for peace. Think Arvo Pärt’s meditative Da pacem Domine and Gustav Mahler’s profound Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen.
