📯This afternoon, we're ushering in our latest season with baroque gems by Schickhardt and Vivaldi, a blast to the renaissance with some jaunty and troubadour-worthy tunes, and Beethoven's celebrated Septet. As usual, you can catch a bite to eat at the nearby Café Bicyclette. 🚲

Tomorrow is our concert Auprès de ma blonde! We have a special treat tomorrow. In an extreme rarity (not sure if ever or at least not for quite a few decades in Edmonton) we have two very rare orchestral instruments in the same concert (not in the same piece, however). Wonder what? Think "The Planets".

Coming up at next week's concert, Auprès de ma blonde, we are going to have some fun and exciting stuff. We won't forget St Patrick's Day 🍀 and you'll get to continue Irish classics with bodhrán drum. But what about French music, you say?? We will have a beautiful piece by Gabriel Fauré with harp. Also, the perennial folk favourite, Auprès de ma blonde, with a very special instrument new to our members' ranks (and possibly the only one in Alberta). Baroque music is also on the menu with our period ensemble players and we'll finish off in a Spanish baroque flurry with... more drum, now in the form of a riq (Arabic hand drum)!!!
