The University of Waterloo and Grebel open their doors to prospective students, friends, and families to tour the university and college campus.
Directed by Michael Wood, the 20 member Jazz Ensemble will present a concert featuring Canadian compositions and their composers.
The fall Chamber Choir program explores themes of light and night in music that spans five hundred years, written by composers such as Palestrina, Josquin and Victoria of the Renaissance and Eric Whitacre, Ēriks Ešenvalds, and Sarah Quartel of our own time.
The Choir will be accompanied by Madeline Weber, piano and a string quartet:
Karen Fu (violin), Frank Wang (violin), Ewan Simms (viola) and Robert Choi (cello)
Come and join the University Choir as they explore themes of winter through works by G.F. Handel, Randall Stroope, Edward Elgar, Randall Thompson, and many more. Whether surrounded by the joyous runs of For Unto Us a Child is Born or the whistling wind of Rajaton's Pakkanen, there is sure to be a piece for everyone.
