Here are some more things to see in the second half of February…
- Lunchtime concerts: On the 17th in the RBA there’s a preview of the GGS spring double bill and on the 25th in the same space there’s a concert by the Canadian Art Song Project. On the 26th at Metropolitan United Teresa Tucci is presenting a mixed bill of opera, art song and musical theatre.
- On the 20th (repeat performance on the 28th) at Arrayspace, the Happenstancers have a sort of mini-show (jjust three performers) of works by Brahms, Faure, Ades, Kurtag, Lori Freedman and Saariaho. There is a rather cool, one minute, promo video.
