Up Next! Little Chamber Music is excited to announce we will be part @rumbletheatre 's Tremors festival launch party on May 25th. Join us for "Fantasy Vignettes" from violinist @erinjamesdesign , with pianist Todd Yaniw and composer @marialiceconrad . Fantasy Vignettes is a time-traveling journey through 400 years of violin fantasias, brought to life with evocative costumes constructed specifically for each composition. From the earliest notated violin fantasia by Étienne Nau to works by Telemann, Schumann, Price, Schoenberg, and a new commission by Mari Alice Conrad that employs sewing machines and accessories as instruments, each piece explores improvisation, identity, and freedom. Erin James’ dual artistry as violinist and textile designer is woven throughout the program, culminating in an original composition and costume that stitches together and reimagines concert material to create something entirely new. Fantasy Vignettes is a sonic and visual exploration of history, imagination, and the power of reinvention. Featuring: Erin James – violin, concept, composition, costumes Todd Yaniw – piano Mari Alice Conrad – composition, narration, sewing machine + accessories Show starts at 7pm. Details and tickets linked in our bio!

Feb 27 / 28th at 8pm, Little Chamber Music presents Here Here live in concert. PWYC tickets (linked in our bio)! ------------------------------------------ A red fleece vest. A lover’s pillow. A rabbit in the snow. In Here Here, 8 Vancouver writers contribute lyrics about their connection to the people, places, and things that make up home. Local composers Mishelle Cuttler and Molly MacKinnon shaped these words into songs that are in turns poignant, sexy, and sometimes hilarious. This collection of gorgeous tunes will be performed by a bespoke band of Vancouver faves, including Christine Quintana, Doug Gorkoff, Alan Ruiz, Sally Zori, and Cat Hiltz with an opening set from harpist/songwriter @elisathorn From family histories to social anxieties, nature to migration, Here Here runs the gamut of story and style to offer a cohesive evening of reflections on ‘home’. ------------------------------------------ Located at Celebration Hall, in the middle of Mountain View Cemetery. Enter the cemetery off 39th and Fraser, and turn right at the admin building: Celebration Hall is located just past the admin building. Venue is fully accessible. This show has been made possible with support from the Province of British Columbia and the Dieux Mille Foundation.

Central Okanagan Public School tour complete! 35 performances, thousands of kiddos, many delicious meals, countless early mornings and a lot of laughing and bad jokes. Til next time!
