Event Description

Join us for the rare appearance in Victoria of Canadian choral legend Howard Dyck! Host of CBC's Saturday Afternoon at the Opera and Choral Concert for many years, and longtime conductor of the Kitchener-Waterloo Grand Philharmonic Choir, Howard Dyck is on the island to conduct a very special performance of Mozart's Requiem (the rarely heard 'Levin completion' featuring newly composed material based on Mozart's sketches). The concert will also feature music by Bruckner, Willan, Mendelssohn, Schoenberg, plus contemporary composers Andrew Balfour, Kathleen Allan, and our feature composer, Stephanie Martin.

Howard has assembled a 'reunion' team of soloists - all singers who worked with him extensively early in their careers: Susan Platts, mezzo-soprano, Benjamin Butterfield, tenor, and Gary Relyea, bass. Joining them is the exceptional young Toronto-based soprano Karoline Podolak - a rising star in Canadian singing making her first ever appearance in British Columbia.

Howard Dyck conducts the 90-voice Sing the North Summer Festival Chorus and Orchestra plus two chamber choirs, with a third chamber choir led by festival director, Kathryn Whitney. Concertmaster Christi Meyers leads the Festival Orchestra, with the cathedral's Assistant Director of Music, Mark McDonald, on organ.
