All About: From Cellars to Classics
Join us Thursday, May 12th at the Laurel Packinghouse in Kelowna for this new Spring Festival event, in partnership with Okanagan Chamberfest! Read on to learn more
Who is From Cellars to Classics perfect for?
This event is perfect for anyone who appreciates music and wine— it’s the perfect pairing, in our opinion! If you enjoy classical music, talented musicians and wine tasting, this event is for you. Works include pieces from Schubert, Bach, Brahms, Mozart, Raminsh, & Luther Adams.
What is chamber music?
Chamber music is classical music played by a small ensemble of intrumentalists. It is more intimate than an orchestra, as there are only a handful of musicians playing at a time. Chamber music was originally played in the chambres of royalty and aristocracy, but in 2022 anyone is able to enjoy.
Who will be performing?
There will be no shortage of musical talent on stage! Performers include Phil Chiu (piano, winner of the Mécénat Musica Prix Goyer), Cameron Crozman (cello, recipient of the Canada Council’s 2021 Virignia Parker Prize), Nicholas Denton Protsack (cello, winner of two 2021 SOCAN Foundation Young Composers Awards), Keith Hamm (viola, named one of Canada’s Hottest 30 Classical Musicians Under 30 by CBC), Meagan Milatz (piano, winner of Shean Piano Competition and CFMTA National Piano Competition), and others. View the bios of all artists here.
