2024 Concert Season

From Music Director Kevin Reeves

Our final concert will take place in the splendid acoustic of St. Francis of Assisi – a venue in which we have never performed. The reason for this is so that guest organist, Matthew Larkin, can take advantage of one of the most magnificent organs in Ottawa.

Appropriately, the main work is Laudes organi, by Zoltan Kodaly, one of the most important composers from Hungary. His exciting  Matra Pictures – evoking peasant life – will also be sung. 

Kodaly used to collect folk songs with his good friend, Bela Bartok, so we’ll perform the latter’s Four Slovak Folk Songs, in the original language. We are also proud to present Bulgarian/Canadian violinist Ralitsa Tcholakova – who with Matthew Larkin, will perform Bartok’s Romanian Folk Dances.
