Pacific Spirit United Church, 2205 West 45th Avenue, Vancouver
Elektra takes a deep dive into the human experience, exploring despair, hope, love, solidarity, boldness, and more with Humanity. This concert features the music of Zanaida Robles, Claudio Monteverdi, Marie-Claire Saindon, Libby Larsen, and more, with a focus on recent works by Canadian composer Laura Hawley. Commissioned works by Hawley and Toronto-based Palestinian-Jordanian composer Natalie Fasheh round out this thought-provoking program. Enriching the listening experience are photographs by South Hazelton photographer Elizabeth Larsen. Joining Elektra for part of this program will be the singers of Elektra’s Mira Youth Mentorship Program.
