Piano and Voice in Concert
A celebration
of the enduring beauty of the piano and the voice
Piano
and Voice in Concert
performances are a result of two programs: our newest program in
Music & Sound, Song in Collaboration; and Keyboard Festival at
The Banff Centre. Song in Collaboration is a program designed
specifically for pianists working with singers. Their concerts
feature repertoire for voice and piano, and occasionally
collaboration with other instrumentalists. The repertoire is
non-operatic, focusing instead on art songs (for solo voice and
piano).
Song In Collaboration is a new program by the Music & Sound
department of The Banff Centre, designed for singers and pianists
(duos or individuals) who are committed to exploring repertoire
for voice and piano. Program musicians are coached individually
and together by Iain Burnside and Edith Wiens. Round table
discussions are scheduled on such topics as career structures,
recital presentation, and the business of music. Where
appropriate, there is also collaboration with instrumentalists;
all public performances are recorded.
Keyboard Festival welcomes 45 pianists from all over the world
to work with renowned pedagogues Marc Durand, Julian Martin, and
Kevin Fitz-Gerald. Both programs run from July 22 to August 2,
during which time the musicians will be entertaining audiences in
a series of concerts for voice and piano. Don’t miss the talent!
These dates include musicians from both programs:
