Solo Flare

We are the Turning Point Ensemble, a sixteen-member (plus conductor) ensemble based in Vancouver, BC. The mission of the Turning Point Ensemble (TPE) is to present music across genres and time periods for large ensemble in innovative contexts: intersecting with multiple art forms, engaging diverse listening communities, and enlivening local, national, and international audiences. Our primary focus is on music of the last 125 years with a special emphasis on creating links to new music and new repertoire. We seek to present our large chamber ensemble of sixteen core players in innovative contexts that include multidisciplinary performance projects, cutting-edge applications of technology, recordings, national and international touring, and educational initiatives in the community.

Turning Point Ensemble

Solo Flare is a unique opportunity to hear and see in action the gifted members of the Turning Point Ensemble as soloists.

ANNEX

Each performer will premiere compositions created especially for them by composers of their own choice. Conceived as a way to produce original collaborative artistic work on a small scale during the pandemic (see the 1 + 1 + 1… film project), these compositions will be unveiled live in performance, including in some cases additional features/collaborators including dancers, theatrical elements, electronics, and lighting. The program will include the following teams:

• Oboist David Owen, Composer Bob Pritchard, and Dancer/Choreographer Emmalena Frederickson
• Harpist Janelle Nadeau and Composer Dorothy Chang
• Flutist Brenda Fedoruk, Singer Robyn Driedger-Klassen and Composer Jeffrey Ryan
• Double Bassist David Brown and Composer/Fire Dancer Meriah Mennie
• Violinist Mary Sokol Brown and Composer Owen Underhill
• Bassoonist/Pianist Ingrid Chiang and Composer Réjean Marois
• Violinist Marc Destrubé and Composer Peggy Lee
• Trumpet Marcus Goddard and Composer John Oliver
• Pianist Jane Hayes and Composer Farangis Nurulla-Khoja
• Trombonist Jeremy Berkman, Flamenco Dancer Sydney Cochrane, and Composer Josué Tacoronte
• Percussionist Jonathan Bernard and Composer Curtis Andrews
