Description
A CHORAL ENCOUNTER WITH ĒRIKS EŠENVALDS
A seminar and singers' workshop for choirs, conductors, and fans of choral music led by celebrated Latvian composer Ēriks Ešenvalds.

This workshop is presented in partnership with conductor Jamie Loback and Capital Chamber Choir.
Ēriks' leadership of this workshop is enabled by his visit to Canada for The Nordic Light Festival, produced by the Orpheus Choir of Toronto in partnership with The Adlers Agency, which is part of the Latvian 2018 Centenary Celebrations in Canada. The event follows the Canadian Premieres of Ešenvalds' Nordic Light Symphony and the making-of documentary screening on Saturday February 24th in Toronto. Single tickets and Nordic Light Pass for February 24th events are available. See www.orpheuschoirtoronto.com/nordiclight
