Past Artists
Recently we have had the pleasure to host these artists:
- Stephane Lemelin (piano) - November 2, 2008
- A Canadian pianist with a broad and eclectic repertoire, Stephane Lemelin has a unique ability to let the music he plays speak for itself, to completely rise above the technical aspect of the work and present to the listener music of absolute purity.
- Rivka Golani (violin), Joel Quarrington (double bass) with Jean Desmarais (piano) - March 1, 2009
Rikva Golani's awesome technique, riveting stage presence and superbly sensitive musicianship will be joined by Joel Quarrington, Canada's foremost double bassist with his colorful performance and style accompanied by the extraordinarily versatile pianist Jean Desmarais. - Bellows & Brass - April 5, 2009
Three of Canada's most successful soloists Guy Few (trumpet, piano), Joseph Petric (accordian) and Eric Vaillancourt (trombone) are committed to making music that engages and remains fun!
