On March 16 Little Chamber Music and SUM Gallery join forces to present a new song cycle by Vancouver composer Leslie Uyeda. Featuring acclaimed mezzo-soprano Krisztina Szabó, poetry by Lorna Crozier (OC), and a chamber ensemble of Vancouver’s finest, When I Stop Saying Your Name – Five Songs of Grief and Grieving will be presented twice in the same evening, alongside readings by Crozier and the premiere of a new instrumental work by Uyeda, Grief Lies Onward.
Featuring acclaimed mezzo-soprano Krisztina Szabó, with composer Leslie Uyeda leading the chamber ensemble from the piano (Rebecca Whitling – violin, Mark Takeshi McGregor – flute, Liam Hockley – clarinet, and Cristian Márkos – cello), the Celebration Hall at Mountain View Cemetery is the perfect location for this musical examination of the difficult process of grief and grieving.
