Christina Petrowska Quilico, a renowned pianist and champion of Canadian music, launches the 2008-09 Faculty Concert Series of York University’s Music Department with her concert, titled Pond Life. It features the Toronto premiere of Creeks and Rivers, a new cycle of 17 solo piano movements written especially for her by noted Canadian composer Ann Southam.
Building on the success of an earlier collaboration titled Rivers, which Petrowska Quilico has performed internationally and released on a three-CD set by Centrediscs in 2005, Creeks and Rivers marks several decades of musical partnership as well as a longstanding friendship.
Petrowska Quilico’s Pond Life is the first of five performances in the 2008-09 Faculty Concert Series. Upcoming concerts will feature drummer Trichy Sankaran (Oct. 27), jazz bassist Al Henderson (Jan. 13), violinist Jacques Israelievitch (Jan. 27) and pianist Dorothy de Val (Feb. 10).
Admission: Single tickets $15, students & seniors $5. Series tickets: three-concert package for $30
