Dear friends, We are delighted to present a special performance with the incomparable Tom Allen, host of CBC Music’s “About Time” on Sunday afternoon, April 27th at 2:30 pm at the Raven’s Cry Theatre.
It’s called “J.S. Bach’s Long Walk in the Snow” and features a star-studded lineup of Canadian musicians capturing the life and music of one of the greatest composers of all time.
Bach is usually seen as the wise, old man of Western Music, but he didn’t begin his working life that way. At 18, and in his first job as an organist, still barely beginning life as a composer but already a spectacular performer, the young genius got into such trouble that the only thing he could do was to walk away.
"J.S. Bach’s Long Walk in the Snow” takes you along on that trip: a 400 km odyssey to a glittering northern port city with street fights, big business, insight, fulfillment, the father figure he didn’t know he needed and, quite possibly, love.
With glorious music – both familiar and gripping - this program brings Tom together with soprano Suzie Leblanc, Joe Phillips on bass and guitar, pianist James Parker and violist David Harding.
Tickets are $45, students $15 and can be purchased by emailing: [email protected] or calling (604) 885-0991.
