Details
A new season is upon us. Who's up for a night of romance? Most of you already know the score (see what I did there?) The talented West Coast Symphony is starting their new season on Oct 14th. The theme is 'Romantic Escape' In this performance my friend Louise will be not only performing as 1st Violin but will be concertmaster as well. For those new, the WSO is a group of highly talented volunteer musicians that are considered to be right next to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in terms of talent. http://westcoastsymphony.ca/history/ Their main venue of Christ Church Cathedral is a lovely venue and has excellent acoustics as well. This year due to my work schedule I will not be able to attend/host all their performances like last year but I will as many as I am able. Come join me on the 14th and listen to the itinerary of: Wagner: Lohengrin Prelude to Act 3 Saint-Saëns: Piano Concerto No. 2 in G Minor, Op. 22* Rachmoninoff: Symphony No. 2 in E Minor, Op. 27 Bujar Llapaj, Conductor Bryan Deans, Assistant Conductor *Brian Feng Li, Piano Soloist Here is the Spotify Playlist for the night direct from Louise herself: https://open.spotify.com/track/4e5IlAPXk0tqlFe3RCcFUM?si=14df934d9fbf48e5 https://open.spotify.com/track/6wIZcmH0VvTraSfMd8l1m7?si=33997dcecc994ebe https://open.spotify.com/track/2s9gMJCg9w6kLGzCZfkZzE?si=3865505276c04bcd https://open.spotify.com/track/4oXp50ZsVvWB0CwX05ljs4?si=5e705ed9e316477f https://open.spotify.com/album/4B5Gzemxj0Adg1LCMN9PVp?si=ZCwpm_0hQAeQy1Bu-beTmg ...and just for fun here is Lady Gaga's 'Bad Romance' https://youtu.be/qrO4YZeyl0I?si=76E1mExKJfVtfny8 Tix are by donation with a suggested amount of $30 but truly pay what you can is perfectly acceptable. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/romantic-escape-tickets-698599749657?aff=odcleoeventsincollection&keep_tld=1

There will be an intermission of about 15 mins. Feel free to bring a water bottle as well as since covid there is no concession.
