8pm: A Glimpse of What’s Beautiful

Named in celebration of the great William Parker, this newly formed improvising quintet comes together in search of a “glimpse”. Jonathon Kay, Dan Loughrin, Nicole Marchesseau, Joe Sorbara and Claire Whitehead

9:30pm: This Strange Container

Three of the most extraordinary voices in Canada come together in an exploration of sound and story, of the joyfully bizarre and weirdly wonderful human voice. Along for the ride: a playful friend to tap, knock, scrape, and smash out some support. Christine Duncan, Richard Marsella, Joe Sorbabra, Ronley Teper.

Everyone Loves A Good Story, combines the energies of so many creators, all connecting through the super-addictive process of sharing stories. This Live show culminates  a collaboration that began with musical sketches that became an album, then evolved into an art gallery and immersive exhibition. All are tangible visual and virtual stories influenced by this albums music. Nothing is more powerful than live performance.

For this event we ask for masking in place unless sipping/eating
& proof of Covid vaccination for all ages eligible.

This project combines the energies of so many creators, all connecting through the super-addictive process of sharing stories. A collaboration that began with musical sketches that became an album, then evolved into a curated invitation from Teper to these artists you will see and hear here. The exhibition showcases commissioned artworks within a variety of artistic media, each inspired by and alongside songs from the LP Everyone Loves A Good Story. All are tangible visual and virtual stories. Wherever, be it music through live performance, speakers &/or headphones, at the finite gallery exhibition, or the multisensory modalities immersed modern exhibition through your phone and into virtual dimensions or just the touch of the pages in an art book.

Art inspired by music – What’s your story?
