Event Details:

Two members of the Montreal based professional choir, Ensemble ArtChoral (Janelle Lucyk, soprano/violinist ; and Kerry Bursey, tenor/lutenist ) are coming to Yellowknife to perform their concert "The Nine Maidens" as part of their coast to coast to coast tour.

Be uplifted and transported into the past, as these two expressive and sensitive performers bring early music vividly to life, showing us that even though time passes, human emotions remain unchanged.

Their program will feature music from Nova Scotian folklorist Helen Creighton's Maritime folk song collection, alongside early music and other traditional English and French songs. Through voices, plucked strings and some violin, the duo performs old music in an intimate manner, with ayres and ballads recounting the transience of good fortune in the life of a voyager.
