This special concert hosted at the Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art in downtown Vancouver, one of Vancouver’s Indigenous artistic landmarks, is a sonic offering honouring this continent’s occupied lands and waters, as we centre the voices and stories of its first peoples.

Other works include compositions by Cree composers Andrew Balfour and Sherryl Sewapagaham, as well as Métis composer Ian Cusson.
Curated by Cree-Métis baritone Jonathon Adams, this special concert will feature Adams, the voices of musica intima, virtuoso mandolinist Alon Sariel, EMV's summer Artist-in-Residence, the students of Sariel's workshop "Unconventional Bach", and flautist Sparvier-Wells.
