Ryerson United Church, 2195 W. 45 Ave, Vancouver

Presented in association with BC 150

The Turning Point Ensemble marks the centenary of the extraordinary French composer Olivier Messiaen with a performance of Quartet for the End of Time played by clarinetist François Houle, violinist Marc Destrubé, cellist Peggy Lee, and pianist Jane Hayes. This iconic work. composed and premiered in a prisoner-of-war camp in 1940/41, is described by New Yorker critic, Alex Ross, as, “the most ethereally beautiful music of the twentieth century.” Joining the Messiaen are three dynamic and colourful large ensemble pieces by one of Canada’s most skillful and internationally respected composers, Alexina Louie. The soloist in Louie’s Winter Music is violist, David Harding, and Ricochet features trombonist, Jeremy Berkman.
