This past weekend yours truly and members of Vis à Vis Saxophone Quartet joined with Saxophilia based in Vancouver for the Da Lontano concert at Trout Lake.
DA LONTANOWith Saxophilia and Vis À VisSaturday August 17, 2013 at 7 PMTROUT LAKE AT JOHN HENDRY PARKFREE ADMISSION
In the serene setting of one of East Vancouver's most cherished green spaces, two saxophone quartets – Vancouver's own Saxophilia, and Victoria's Vis à Vis – will perform together for the first time in a unique, outdoor musical experience. Dispersed around Trout Lake as the sun sets, they will play new works by BC composers Daniel Brandes, Colin MacDonald, Iman Habibi, Jordan Nobles and a classic work by New York composer Daniel Goode. Bring the family, a picnic, and come enjoy a long summer twilight accompanied by music.
Performers were stationed approximately 100 feet apart at the edge of the lake and were given stop watches to coordinate events.
