Join us for a free concert featuring Banff Centre's Evolution: Classical program participants Alex Ellsworth, Allegra Chamber Orchestra quarte, Martin Daigle and Marie Lévêque.
(Approx. 105 minutes total. No intermission)
Duration of each group: Approximately 45 minutes
Program:
Thursday, July 7 in the Margaret Greenham Theatre:
Lighting Design — Hugh Conacher
Artistic Producer — Caroline Hollway
Unexpected | Martin & Marie — Martin Daigle, percussion and movement; Marie Lévêque, percussion and movement
One way or another, we all show up with expectations.
Unexpected opens a field of explorations for two performers to break from the expectations we all have of dance, percussion, performance, and listening.
Would you walk your microphone like you would a dog?
Can a tree be a drum?
Does a drum kit need a drummer?
Bring all your expectations to the show and leave them on the way out.
