| Description |
This event celebrated the "dean of Canadian composers" on the occasion of his 94th birthday. John Beckwith has had a foundational impact on Canadian music for over 70 years, and he is still very much a driving force. As part of Confluence Concerts' celebration of John Beckwith's 94th birthday, Kimberly Barber contributed a piece entitled "The formal garden of the heart (1950)" from Two Songs to poetry of Colleen Thibaudeau. The piece was shared during the COVID-19 pandemic through YouTube concerts on subsequent nights. |
