Classics to Jazz and Back

The 2000 - 2001 Orangeville Concert Association Series

Joe Trio
Friday, October 13, 2000

Joe Trio is not your average piano trio. But that’s the point. The trio does not wish to be neatly categorized. Instead they strive for diversity, and more than a little unpredictability. Their repertoire consists of the classics - from Haydn to Shostakovich - new works by contemporary composers, and their own imaginative arrangements of popular and jazz music. Since Joe Trio was formed in 1989, they have performed across Canada and the United States.

 

Brass Rings and William O’Meara
Friday, November 17, 2000

Brass Rings is a group of experienced musicians who invent programming that demands they stretch beyond their musical selves. Using their compelling musical performance as a unifying thread, they collaborate with guest musicians as poets, actors, dancers, and stage directors to create a deeply involving experience for their audiences. In time for Christmas, Brass Rings and William O’Meara are travelling musicians who tell you how they know when it’s time for Christmas.

 

Lisa Lindo Trio
Friday, March 23, 2001

When Torontonian Lisa Lindo lit into her roof-raising performance of the spiritual 'Go Tell It on the Mountain', there was absolutely no doubt that a star was born, as the rapturous applause attested. Lisa Lindo has gone on to join Stuart McLean on many of his Vinyl Cafe concert tours. In early October 1999, Lisa’s first CD, 'Drink Your Coffee While It’s Hot', was launched on the season’s first Vinyl Cafe live-to-tape to great acclaim. In keeping with her Gemini nature, Lisa Lindo has her fingers in all musical pies. Currently Lisa plays with Pacande (Columbian) and her own Lisa Lindo Jazz Trio. Catch a rising star now!

 

Toronto Percussion Ensemble
Friday, April 20, 2001

Formed in 1980, the Toronto Percussion Ensemble has given hundreds of performances throughout Ontario and has performed many new works for percussion. Examining the multicultural mosaic of contemporary Canada, performances include such diverse sources as Brazil, the Caribbean, Spain, West Africa, and the British Isles, as well as the military and other music traditions of Europe.
