This collaboration with Toronto’s Amadeus Choir will present a world premiere by Métis/French-Canadian composer Ian Cusson and the Canadian premiere of Shavon Lloyd’s Alleluia.  The program features excerpts from Rachmaninov’s transcendent All-Night Vigil (commemorating the composer’s 150th birthday on April 1, 2023), as well as works by Ukrainian-Canadian composer Larysa Kuzmenko, Latvian composer Uģis Prauliņš, and Canadian composers Kathleen Allan and Jon Washburn.
