Jazz at 3pm - September 23 - Christ Church Cathedral
featuring:
Cory Weeds, sax
Rene Worst, bass
Miles Black, piano
Jesse Cahill, drums
and special guest vocalist Jennifer Scott
Over the years MusicFest Vancouver has enjoyed a warm relationship with Cory Weeds' Cellar Jazz Club as a concert venue. It's been the site of great performances by international artists as well as a showcase for the best that Vancouver has to offer. Vocalist Jennifer Scott remembers fondly her own collaboration with the great bop trumpeter Clark Terry given in 2003 under the auspices of MusicFest Vancouver. At 3pm at Christ Church Cathedral we'll welcome some of our favourite jazz alumni who have stepped up to play on behalf of the festival: Cory Weeds, sax; Miles Black, piano; Jesse Cahill, drums; and Rene Worst, bass - plus Jennifer Scott with a ballad or two on behalf of your festival.

One of the great things about MusicFest programming is the opportunity for musical exploration. Whether it's an all-day encounter with accordions, discovering the versatility of a banjo, or unveiling the exotic sound of ancient Oriental instruments, MusicFest Vancouver has boldly gone where your ears may have never gone before, bringing you music from every corner of the world.
As part of our WORLD celebration we've invited another alum, harpist Lori Pappajohn, who is familiar to many for her WinterHarp celebrations. She'll reach back to the medieval minstrels and bards with a Celtic-infused contribution. Joining in with more music of the Sceptered Isle and beyond will be members of the Elektra Women's Choir, led by Artistic Director Morna Edmundson and featuring pianist Stephen Smith.

Classical at 7pm - September 23 - Christ Church Cathedral
featuring:
Daniel Bolshoy, guitar
Ariel Barnes, cello
Did you miss this year's sold out performance at Pyatt Hall with guitarist Daniel Bolshoy and cellist Ariel Barnes? Here's a chance to get a taste of that and lots more. We're thrilled to have the most visible face of this year's festival, our "poster boy" Daniel Bolshoy, reprise some of the repertoire featured in his Pyatt Hall performance. His wide-ranging repertoire covers everything from baroque to contemporary, and all of it is brilliantly played.
The music of J.S. Bach is considered so sublime that NASA included it on the Voyager satellites as a part of our collective greeting to rest of the universe. Ariel Barnes will be featured in one of Bach's solo cello suites - and more Bach will round out the programme...watch for further details in upcoming newsletters!
