ABOUT THE SHOW
Winter Morning Walks is a multiple GRAMMY award-winning album of two song cycles by composer/arranger Maria Schnieder, who has won seven GRAMMY Awards (in both classical and jazz music) and for her collaborations with David Bowie. The piece of the same name is an exquisite setting of nine short poems by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Ted Kooser, painting a winter landscape moving from the winter solstice to the vernal equinox.
Arranged by BC jazz legend Rejean Marois, Winter Morning Walks will be performed with the four-piece instrumentalists of Triology, alongside other seasonal festive favourites.
Enjoy this uplifting, timeless musical ode to the human condition that leaves audiences glowing with the transcendent power of art in the darkest time of year.
ABOUT Musica Intima
musica intima vocal ensemble, formed in 1992, is a Vancouver- based professional vocal collective of the highest standard, serving a mission to connect, inspire, and profoundly move people through intimate and collaborative vocal experiences in many different musical genres.
They have recorded ten albums and commissioned twenty-seven choral compositions to date—every single one from a Canadian composer. Their collaborations include internationally renowned artists such as British cellist Steven Isserlis, Pulitzer-Prize winning composers Julia Wolfe and Caroline Shaw, and master improviser and vocalist Bobby McFerrin with whom they performed at the Chan Centre in 2019.
In addition to touring throughout Canada, the ensemble has given recent performances in the United States, Denmark, Ireland, France and Korea.
Schneider’s music hails from the glorious tradition of song-setting from Gershwin to Sondheim, framed in the open prairie sonorities of Copland and gentle jazz-inflected barbs of John Adams. It flows in an unbroken expressive stream, lyrical and ingratiating to the ear. Her melodies elevate Kooser’s prosaic lines...” - Vincent Plush | The Australia
