Portraits – “Among the Firs”
About the Event
Saturday, 7:30 pm.(livestream only)
Christ Church Cathedral and the Emily Carr String Quartet are pleased to announce Portraits, a lineup of in-person concerts this fall at the cathedral. The Emily Carr String Quartet, now in its 15th Season, will present such musical masterpieces as Schubert’s Death and the Maiden, Shostakovich 8th Quartet, Brahms Clarinet Quintet and contemporary works by Caroline Shaw and Jared Miller. Through social distancing, limited seating and repeat performances, Portraits will offer the community an opportunity to once again attend a concert in-person and to experience the power of live music.
“Among the Firs” To celebrate the 250th anniversary of Beethoven’s birth, this concert will feature the first of Beethoven’s “Razumovsky” quartets, Op. 59 no. 1 in F major. We’ll also hear selections from Antonin Dvorak’s Cypresses, a collection of string quartet versions of his love songs.
In-person concerts have been suspended at Christ Church Cathedral. The following performance has been affected by the latest provincial COVID-19 order: “Among the Firs” (Emily Carr String Quartet)
