The National Arts Centre Orchestra presents Northern Cadence International Jazz Series: three mini jazz concerts from three schools in three different countries!
The Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, Finland, the Manhattan School of Music in New York, USA, and McGill University’s Schulich School of Music in Montreal, Canada, have prepared 30-minute concerts featuring their faculty and students performing original and standard repertoire together. Inspired by the NAC Orchestra’s 2022 Tour, Truth in Our Time, in which NACO presents the world premiere of Philip Glass’s newest work, each school’s jazz ensemble will select repertoire based around this theme.
These three noon-hour webinar events will include the pre-recorded concert followed by a 20-minute Q&A / interview exchange between the ensembles. Audience participation is encouraged! Ask your questions in the chat during the session.
On April 2, the three 30-minute concerts will be featured as a 90-minute concert, presented by the NAC and livestreamed from our website.
There are currently no upcoming events. More will be announced soon!
