Concert

Join soprano Bethany Horst and pianist Charmaine Fopoussi for a February Recital of loves songs, featuring the Song of Songs by Canadian Srul Irving Glick as well as selections by Strauss and Delibes.  

Using songs of Gilles Binchois and John Bedyngham, with their associated parody Masses — and new adaptations of poetry by Christine de Pizan — this program tells a late-medieval transition story, which is also a story of the progress of love, both sacred and profane.

Every two years, orchestra@uwaterloo holds a Concerto and Aria Competition that is open to University of Waterloo students and recent graduates, and is judged by a panel of professional musicians. Winners perform as soloists with the orchestra in a public concert.  Both singers and instrumentalists are welcome to enter. The Finalists concert will be held at 5pm on February 4th, 2023.
