Get ready to be dazzled, Victoria!
The Music by the Sea Festival has launched their August lineup with performances in Victoria.
This finely-curated program of classical and jazz music will take place in the Victoria International Marina from Tuesday, August 1st to Saturday, August 5th.
Each unique show will start at 8 p.m. — just in time to catch a beautiful sunset off of the harbour while enjoying this intimate concert experience.
“Moving classical and jazz music; breathtaking virtuosity…[and] spectacular seaside settings. That’s how Music by the Sea has enchanted for over 15 years,” said Christopher Donison, Artistic Director of Music by the Sea.
Noteworthy artists include Texas-based classical guitar duo Chad Ibison and Janet Grohovac on August 1st and 3rd.
On Wednesday August 2nd, pianist/vocalist Louise Rose will take the stage with her powerful lyrics and enthralling stage presence.
“To hear Louise Rose play on a full-sized concert Steinway piano, in the intimate and beautiful setting of the Victoria International Marina will make for a transcendent musical experience for our audiences,” said Deborah Bricks, Marketing Director and Front of House Manager of Music by the Sea.
Other performances to note include Sienna Dahlen, a Juno award-winning vocalist, with guitarist Bill Coon who both just released Balladextrous — performing on August 4th and 5th, accompanied by pianist Kate Wyatt and bassist Adrian Vedady.
Nick Apivor, a respected Vancouver percussionist, will also be performing on both August 4th and 5th.
