Chamber Music For The 21st Century –
Violin, Piano and Electric Cello

A dramatic chamber music experience starring Mayumi Seiler on violin, Angela Park on piano and Cris Derksen on electric cello. Cris Derksen is a Juno Award–nominated, two-spirit, Cree cellist and composer, who will present specially-commissioned arrangements of her works specifically for this occasion. Music by Wolfgang A. Mozart, Johannes Brahms and Cris Derksen.

Seiler brings an exceptional blend of precision with tonal generosity, finesse with enthusiasm. She persuades you to share her absorption.

BBC Music Magazine

Derksen creates undeniably modern music that mixes folk, classical, dance, and aboriginal structures and tunes with electronic beats and, sometimes, vocals.
