Juno-nominated contemporary chamber ensemble Standing Wave ventures into a panoply of musical worlds with passion and assurance.
This evening's repertoire is selected especially for Kelowna audiences and includes contemporary works that are simultaneously innovative and accessible. Audiences will experience completely original compositions, as well as one that remakes a work by Claude Debussy.
In its 30-year history, Standing Wave has commissioned and premiered well over 100 works. The ensemble presents an annual season of concerts in Vancouver, has toured across Canada, and has collaborated with luminary artists such as Kokoro Dance, Ballet BC, Mina Shum, Peter Anderson, Talking Pictures, Veda Hille, and the Git Hayetsk Dancers.
Standing Wave’s latest album, 20C Remix (2021), received a Juno nomination for Classical Album of the Year (small ensemble). Standing Wave was named Artist/Ensemble of the Year at the West Coast Music Awards in 2017 and 2022.
