Come hear award-winning pianist, Sergei Saratovsky, and Juilliard-graduate Keiko Tokunaga on violin!

Muzewest is concluding its Spring Strings Chamber Music Festival with a wonderful violin and piano duo. The repertoire will include stunning pieces by Schubert, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, and more. These composers represent the epitome of the Romantic Era and Müzewest Concerts is thrilled to have these amazing performers interpreting this music.

Classical music is a powerful art form that can change the lives of those who hear it. Müzewest seeks to create community around this great art form. Through our evening recitals, we hope to create community by people sharing musical experiences. It can be an isolating experience living in an urban environment and recitals are a chance for people to get to know their neighbours!

Moreover, we believe in giving back to the communities that support our series. The most significant way in which we do this is by providing free classical music recitals to public elementary schools. We do this because children are the next generation of musicians and music appreciators. The inspiration is clearly visible when the students have a chance to be part of these concerts at their own school. Many are unable to afford the ticket prices at such events in Vancouver and are not able to travel the distance and attend the concerts. Sergei Saratovsky and Keiko Tokunaga will be performing at a local elementary school as part of our community program! PROGRAM:
