  • Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Terri Clark
    APRIL - MAY 2016 I ISSUE 6 SGT. PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND TERRI CLARK MEETS THE WSO RUSSIAN FIREWORKS LES VIOLONS DU ROY DISNEY FANTASIA: LIVE IN CONCERT wso.ca I 204-949-3999 MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Dear Friends, Patrons, and Music Lovers, This year marks my 10th anniversary season with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra. We have performed some of my favourite works this season with Mahler’s 2nd and 10th symphonies, and recently Bruckner’s 4th, but there is still so much beautiful music to take in over the next few months. We set Tchaikovsky’s 5th Symphony, his most personal statement, with Alain Lefèvre’s interpretation of Rachmaninoff’s 4th Piano Concerto. Then we will have the ultimate pairing of classical music and animation with Disney FANTASIA: Live in Concert. We close the season with the astounding theatrics of Cirque Mechanics, a feast for the eyes and ears. We will bring an 18-foot, pedal- powered “Gantry Crane” on stage. If you have never seen a Cirque show before, this is the way to see it - with live symphony orchestra! While you are at the concert hall, I encourage you to talk to a WSO staff member or volunteer about our next season. They will be happy to discuss your subscription package with you and let you know all the benefits of becoming a WSO subscriber – and a member of our extended symphony family. I would like to thank all of our major sponsors, Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries, the Richardson Foundation, Air Canada, Investors Group and Great-West Life, who help this organization thrive.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Steven Page and Andy Maize Join WSO For
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Steven Page and Andy Maize Join WSO for Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, April 8-10 Winnipeg, MB – March 29, 2016 – Steven Page (formerly Barenaked Ladies), Andy Maize (Skydiggers), Craig Northey (Odds), and Glen Phillips (Toad the Wet Sprocket) with the Art of Time ensemble join the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra (WSO) to reimagine The Beatles’ groundbreaking 1967 album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, April 8-10. “Performing with a full orchestra is exhilarating, there’s nothing like it,” said Page. “Singing in front of an ensemble of that many musicians, and of that many musicians of that caliber is every bit as thrilling as anybody would imagine it to be. It’s also a little bit nerve- wracking, but mostly it’s just a really moving and exciting experience.” In the spring of 2012, the Art of Time Ensemble (with Andrew Burashko at the helm) took on the challenge of rebuilding The Beatles’ iconic masterpiece Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. The original recording was heralded by Rolling Stone magazine as “the most important rock & roll album ever made.” At the 45th anniversary of its release, Sgt. Pepper was the perfect canvas upon which Art of Time could paint with its own brush. “Art of Time chooses to rebuild magic, not restore it. The Beatles loved to turn us on, and so too does Burashko and his friends.” - The Globe and Mail. Drawing on an original recording rich in experimentation, Art of Time commissioned new arrangements that range from faithful homages to soaring new interpretations, all while preserving the vocal melodies and harmonies as Lennon & McCartney first intended.
