Pathways is a choral concert programme that features challenging new music by Canadian BIPOC, queer, and women composers. This will be the Atlantic Canada premiere of many of these pieces. Pathways explores themes of joy, justice, liberation, and the journeys we undertake to reach those states of being.
The program includes music by Malaysian-Canadian Tracy Wong, Franco-Ontarian composer Marie-Claire Saindon, Haitian-Canadian composer and conductor Christopher Ducasse, and Canadian composer Nicholas Ryan Kelly. Eastern Horizon will be joined by percussionist Mohammad Sahraei and collaborative pianist Krissy Keech. Pathways 2023 Details Tickets are available through eventbrite and at the door on a scale ranging from Pay-What-You-Can to $20. |
