We cancelled netflix several months back, and now that the gov. is trying to stop funding for PBS we decided to make a donation and become PBS "passport holders". So tonight I watched the 1st episode of the Moonflower Murders, and it was quite delightful! video.cascadepbs.org/show/moonflo...

Tomorrow I get to perform as part of the group backing legendary Iranian singer Googoosh. She made over 150 records between 1966-1979, then with the Islamic Revolution was put under house arrest for 21 years. This is her farewell tour. www.ticketleader.ca/events/detail/googoosh

Vancouver Opera's next production is Flight by Jonathan Dove. It is a comedy, and judging by the laughter on the live recording I have been listening to it's incredibly funny. You want to be in the audience for this one! www.vancouveropera.ca/whats-on/Fli...

In the unlikely setting of an airport departure lounge, Jonathan Dove’s must-see modern masterpiece soars with comedy and compassion.

Also on the Equal Measure recital another one of my students will be playing Sketch by Rosalind Ellicott. Unfortunately I can't find a good video to share of that piece, but here is a charming video with her Aria for violin and piano playing behind her story. www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3Dc...

I intend to post many links to pieces of music by composers from historically excluded groups, as that is my passion! I often teach pieces by Christine Donkin, but she also writes quite a bit of music for "grown-ups". Here is her In Paradisum for choir: www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-HE...
