SUMMARY:Duane Andrews and the Hot Club of Conception Bay featuring Ray Legere
DESCRIPTION:DUANE ANDREWS‘ music is the product of a great ear\, an adventurous spirit and a love of music that is beyond category. Uniting what would seem to be impossible – traditional Newfoundland music with the swing jazz of the legendary Django Reinhardt\, Andrews makes it not just work – he makes it soar. The Juno award winning producer\, composer\, guitarist and globetrotting performer’s latest album is the best evidence yet of his truly unique musical vision and is the sound of him\, literally\, bringing it all back home. \nA native of the island of Newfoundland\, off the east coast of Canada\, Duane grew up exposed to the island’s mélange of cultural influences and his development as a guitarist reflects that. After graduating from the Jazz Studies program at St. FXU with honours\, Duane spent several years studying contemporary music composition at the Conservatoire International de Paris and at the Conservatoire National de Region in Marseille\, France. \nHis discography starts with the release of his debut solo CD\, simply titled\, Duane Andrews (2004)\, which led to the multiple award winning Crocus (2006)\, then Raindrops (2008)\, which features a collaboration with the Atlantic String Quartet and two albums with Cape Breton master fiddler Dwayne Côté\, Dwayne Côté and Duane Andrews (2010) and The Empress (2012). \nOther notable collaborations include Charlie’s Boogie (2013) with bluegrass guitarist/singer/songwriter extraordinaire Craig Young which evolved into Fretboard Journey (2016) with the addition of fellow Newfoundland guitarists Sandy Morris and Gordon Quinton. Playing regular Sunday sessions in Quidi Vidi\, NL with accordionist Aaron Collis resulted in The Mallard Cottage Sessions (2015) and his most recent collaboration\, the Juno award winning More Sheep\, Less Sleep (2015) from The Swinging Belles with children’s educators Erin Power and Laura Winter\, can be found at www.theswingingbelles.ca. \n—————————————————————————————- \nPRESS \n“the music might be best described as Folk music played by a top Jazz guitarist and the result is refreshing and stunning. Highly recommended.”\nFolkworld Magazine\, Germany \n“…startlingly good…”\nNOW Magazine\, Toronto \n“…it was the group’s infectious versions of well-known Reinhardt tunes that drew the biggest applause. But it was the group’s bubbling stew of styles on Newfoundland classics that still echoed after the last notes faded.”\nThe Ottawa Citizen\, Ottawa \n——————————————————————————————————————\nAWARDS\nNewfoundland and Labrador Arts Council\n2017 Artist of the Year Award\n2006 Emerging Artist of the Year Award \nAtlantic Film Festival\n2018 Best Original Score (An Audience Of Chairs)\n2009 Best Original Score (Crackie) \nBritish Documentary Film Festival\n2017 Best Music (Meet Maurice Crosby) \nThe Nickel Film Festival\n2016 Best Original Score (for Terra Nova Matadora) \nJuno\n2016 Children’s Album of the Year Award (with The Swinging Belles) \nMusicNL\n2018 Fans Choice Award (with The Swinging Belles)\n2017 Instrumental Album Award (with Fretboard Journey)\n2016 Male Artist and Jazz/Blues Album Awards\n2015 Traditional Album Award (with Aaron Collis)\n2014 Instrumental Album Award (with Craig Young)\n2012 Jazz Album of the Year Award (with Dwayne Côté)\n2010 Instrumental Album Award (with Dwayne Côté)\n2008 Male Artist\, Album\, SOCAN Songwriter\, Jazz Album of the Year Awards\n2006 Jazz/Blues Artist of the Year Award\n2004 Jazz/Blues Artist of the Year Award\, Rising Star Nominee \nIndependent Music Awards\n2014 Jazz Single Nominee\n2011 Instrumental Album Award (with Dwayne Cote)\n2008 Jazz Single and Album Nominee\n2006 Jazz Album Award \nECMA\n2017 Traditional Instrumental Recording of the Year Award (with Fretboard Journey)\n2016 Roots/Traditional Group of the Year Award Nominee (with Aaron Collis)\n2014 Traditional Instrumental Recording of the Year Award (with Craig Young)\n2012 Roots/Traditional Group of the Year Award Nominee (with Dwayne Côté)\n2011 Instrumental and Jazz Album of the Year Award (with Dwayne Côté)\n2010 Album and Producer of the Year Nominee\n2009 Instrumental Album of the Year Award\, Male Artist Nominee\n2007 Jazz Album of the Year Award\n2006 Instrumental Album of the Year Award\, Male Artist Nominee\n2005 Jazz Album of the Year Award\, Emerging Artist Nominee \nCanadian Folk Music Awards\n2016 Instrumental Artist Award\n2015 Children’s Album Award (with The Swinging Belles)\n2007 Best World Artist (Solo) Nominee\n2005 Best Instrumental Artist (Solo) Nominee\, Best World Artist (Solo) Nominee\, Pushing the Boundries Nominee

SUMMARY:ECSQ Play Washington\, Janacek & Schumann
DESCRIPTION:ECSQ play Washington\, Janáček & Schumann \nDate: Friday\, March 28th\, 7:30PM \nLocation: Saint John Arts Centre\n20 Peel Plaza\, Saint John \nTickets | Billets:\nAdults: $25 | Seniors $20 | Students $15 | Sistema Students & Faculty: Free \nAdvance tickets:https://www.tickettailor.com/events/elmcitystringquartet/1371357 \nEN \nThe ECSQ continues their season with three high-energy pieces. The concert will start with Middleground by Shelly Washington\, a Missouri-born composer who blends classical\, jazz\, and American Folk into a style all her own. The concert continues with “The Kreutzer Sonata”: Leos Janáček’s 1st string quartet\, which was inspired by the 1889 Leo Tolstoy novella of the same name. In the story\, two fated lovers fall for each other when playing Beethoven’s “Kreutzer Sonata\,” which was dedicated to the French violin virtuoso\, Rudolph Kreutzer. In a long stream of run on dedications\, the quartet is essentially a piece of music that was based on a book that was titled after a composition that was dedicated to a violinist! The concert concludes with something a bit more straightforward: Robert Schumann’s String Quartet No. 1. The piece is a beautiful balance of classicism and romanticism. \nFR \nL’ECSQ continue leur saison avec trois pièces pleines d’énergie. Le concert commence avec Middleground par Shelly Washington\, une compositrice originaire du Missouri qui mélange le style classique\, le jazz et le folklore américain dans un style unique en son genre. Le concert se poursuivra avec “The Kreutzer Sonata: le premier quatuor à cordes de Leos Janáček\, inspiré par le roman éponyme de Léon Tolstoï\, écrit en 1889. Dans le roman\, deux amants tombent amoureux l’un de l’autre en jouant la « Sonate à Kreutzer » de Beethoven\, dédiée au violoniste virtuose français Rudolph Kreutzer. Dans une longue série de dédicaces\, le quatuor est essentiellement un morceau de musique basé sur un livre intitulé d’après une composition dédiée à un violoniste ! Le concert se termine par une pièce un peu plus simple : Le Quatuor à cordes n° 1 de Robert Schumann. Cette œuvre est un bel équilibre entre classicisme et romantisme. \nProgram | Programme: \nMiddleground – Shelley Washington \nString Quartet No. 1 “Kreutzer Sonata” – Leoš Janáček\n \n– Intermission – \nString Quartet No. 1 in A minor\, Op. 41\, No. 1 – Robert Schuman

SUMMARY:The Peking Acrobats
DESCRIPTION:THE PEKING ACROBATS® \nFor the last thirty two years\, THE PEKING ACROBATS® have redefined audience perceptions of Chinese acrobatics. They perform daring maneuvers atop a precarious pagoda of chairs and display their technical prowess at such arts as trick-cycling\, precision tumbling\, juggling\, somersaulting\, and gymnastics. They push the limits of human ability\, defying gravity with\namazing displays of contortion\, flexibility\, and control. THE PEKING ACROBATS are often accompanied by live musicians who skillfully play traditional Chinese instruments; the time-\nhonored Chinese music coalesces with high-tech special effects and awe-inspiring acrobatic feats\, creating an exuberant entertainment event with the festive pageantry of a Chinese Carnival. \nSince their founding in 1986\, THE PEKING ACROBATS have been featured on numerous television shows and celebrity-studded TV specials. These include Nickelodeon’s Unfabulous\, Ellen’s Really Big Show (hosted by Ellen DeGeneres)\, The Wayne Brady Show\, That’s Incredible\, ABC’s Wide World of Sports\, and NBC’s Ring In The New Year Holiday Special. They have also appeared on HDNet TV’s In Focusseries\, and have appeared regularly in 3D on NBC/Comcast’s new 3D Channel. THE PEKING ACROBATS set the world record for the Human Chair Stack on FOX Network’s Guinness Book Primetime television show in 1999: they balanced six people precariously atop six chairs twenty one feet up in the air without safety lines\, astounding audiences with their bravery and dexterity. THE PEKING ACROBATS have also made their way onto the silver screen – company members were featured in Steven Soderbergh’s hit film Ocean’s Eleven playing alongside Julia Roberts\, Brad Pitt and George Clooney. PEKING ACROBATS’ alumnus Shaobo Qin also appeared in that film’s two\nsequels\, Ocean’s Twelve and Ocean’s Thirteen. \nTHE PEKING ACROBATS achieved another milestone in the fall of 2003\, when they made their orchestral debut at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles\, CA. They performed as part of the\nHollywood Bowl’s Fireworks Season Finale\, where the company blended their unique brand of acrobatics with the majestic sound of the 100-piece Hollywood Bowl Orchestra\, conducted by John Mauceri. Since their Hollywood Bowl debut\, THE PEKING ACROBATS have performed with many of the most prestigious Symphony Orchestras in North America today. These include the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra; the Ravinia Festival Orchestra\, featuring members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra; the San Diego Symphony Orchestra; the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra; the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra; and the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. THE PEKING ACROBATS return often to the Hollywood Bowl\, where they perform with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra as Special Guest Artists. \nOver their thirty-one year career\, THE PEKING ACROBATS have achieved international acclaim\, dazzling audiences around the world. In February of 2005\, THE PEKING ACROBATS premiered in Italy on a five-week\, twelve-city tour. Their opening in Milan became a spectacular media event that was covered nationally by the Italian press. In city after city\, THE\nPEKING ACROBATS took stage before sold-out crowds\, and the reviews were filled with accolades attesting to their superb performances. Since their Italian debut\, THE PEKING\nACROBATS have performed in seven European countries on their six European Tours between 2005 and today. \nTHE PEKING ACROBATS are part of a time-honored Chinese tradition\, rooted in centuries of Chinese history and folk art. Tradition demands that each generation of acrobats add its own improvements and embellishments; because of this\, high honor is conferred upon those skilled enough to become acrobats. THE PEKING ACROBATS seek to uphold this rich and ancient folk art tradition\, bringing it to new technical heights while integrating twenty-first century technology. In the words of Clive Davis of the New York Post\, “THE PEKING ACROBATS [are] pushing the envelope of human possibility\,” combining agility and grace in remarkable feats of “pure artistry.”

SUMMARY:Tamar Ilana + Ventanas
DESCRIPTION:Founded in 2011\, Ventanas interweaves flamenco\, Sephardic and Balkan music and dance\, and their own original compositions. They have released three albums (2013\, 2015\, 2019) and have toured extensively throughout North America\, including a sold-out show at the Skirball Centre in Los Angeles in 2019. They have been nominated for four Canadian Folk Music Awards\, including Best Traditional Singer and Best Ensemble. The six-piece Toronto-based world music ensemble is fronted by Jewish-Indigenous powerhouse vocalist and dancer Tamar Ilana\, and features the city’s finest world musicians. They perform in over 20 languages such as Ladino\, Spanish\, Bulgarian\, Macedonian\, Hebrew\, French\, Romani and Arabic\, drawing inspiration from today’s worldwide themes of migration and the questioning of one’s identity. \nTamar’s childhood was spent gathering songs from small villages on the edge of the Mediterranean and dancing flamenco\, and Ventanas’ band members are from across the globe. Together\, and in true Canadian fashion\, they intertwine their musical cultures to create an all-encompassing world of their own in which they lead audiences down the less traveled paths of the Mediterranean\, mixing in contemporary interpretations of ancient ballads\, original compositions and new choreographies\, inviting audiences of all backgrounds into their lives and music. \nThroughout the pandemic\, Ventanas served as the house band for the new performing arts organization\, FabCollab and the Women in Song series\, collaborating with primarily BIPOC world class women artists such as Tara Moneka (Iraq)\, Eliana Cuevas (Venezuela)\, OKAN (Cuba)\, Aline Morales (Brazil)\, Maryem Tollar (Egypt)\, Kaeja d’Dance (Canada)\, Dimitra Kahrimanidis (Greece)\, Nastasia Y (Ukraine) and others\, in iconic Toronto venues such as Koerner Hall\, the Aga Khan Museum and Lula Lounge. This series was also live-streamed by the National Arts Centre garnering over 100\,000 online views. \nVentanas has toured throughout Canada\, the United States and Colombia. \nVentanas lineup: \nTamar Ilana – vocals\, dance\nDemetri Petsalakis – oud\, keys\nJessica Deutsch – violin\, vocals\nBenjamin Barrile – flamenco guitar\nTyler Emond – upright and electric bass\nDerek Gray – drumset\, percussion \nTamar Ilana bio \nTamar Ilana is a Toronto-born multifaceted artist who grew up on stage singing in multiple languages\, touring internationally and dancing flamenco since a very young age. Of Jewish-Indigenous-Romanian-Scottish descent\, Tamar sings in 20 languages and is most influenced by the Sephardic and Flamenco traditions. \nTamar’s music and fierce talent reflect her personal and cultural history growing up in multicultural Toronto; accompanying her ethnomusicologist mother\, Dr. Judith Cohen\, on village fieldwork expeditions and on stage as a child; and living in Ibiza\, Barcelona\, Paris and Seville as a teen and young adult. Drawing on these experiences\, Tamar founded her world music project\, Ventanas\, in 2011 with whom she has released three albums and been nominated for four Canadian Folk Music Awards including Best Traditional Singer. Tamar has collaborated with such renowned artists as Jesse Cook\, Briga\, Eliana Cuevas\, Lenka Lichtenberg\, Jaffa Road\, Sultans of String\, the Lemon Bucket Orkestra\, and Tara Moneka. A highly sought-after flamenco dancer and singer\, Tamar performs with the Esmeralda Enrique Spanish Dance Company\, and at the Academy of Spanish Dance. Tamar has also been featured in award-winning\, innovative international musicals in New York\, San Francisco\, Washington DC\, the UK and Germany. \nIn 2020\, Tamar co-founded the presenting arts organization FabCollab\, and has since presented over 100 BIPOC women and minority artists at venues such as Koerner Hall and the Aga Khan Museum.
