Bach on Turtle’s Back - Year 3 - Rebirth

Birth, death and rebirth resonate as universal topics of human expression. Combining the

C major Violin Sonata and E major Partita of J. S. Bach, the choreography of Brian Solomon,

and selected Bach arias, "Rebirth" explores and reconciles these profoundly human concerns

within a uniquely Canadian context. In this, the third and final concert of our Bach on Turtle’s Back project, we are proud to premiere a new commission from Cree composer Andrew Balfour, scored for period string quartet and baritone (performed by Jonathon Adams & the Eybler Quartet). Join us for the culmination of this multilayered, multi-discipline project, a true feast for the senses.

Directed and Choreographed by Brian Solomon.

PERFORMERS: Brian Solomon; Jonathon Adams, baritone; Julia Wedman, solo violin; Mariana Medellín, dancer. Eybler Quartet: Julia Wedman and Patricia Ahern, violins; Patrick Jordan, viola; Margaret Gay, ‘cello.

Tickets available on our website $10, $25 or $40 - general seating and you choose price,  or Pay-What-You-Choose at the door of the concert.
