88 Strings: Debut Recital
88 Strings is a Canadian quartet that mixes traditional Chinese, Persian and Western plucked instruments, presenting new musical inventions and adventures written or arranged specifically for our group. Described by an audience member as "plucked string heaven," our unique sound blends classical and world music together in an enveloping and often hypnotic music.
88 Strings presents a program of classical music from the cultures of Spain, China, Persia, France, and Canada, featuring world premieres of two compositions especially commissioned by the ensemble from Canadian composers Jin Zhang (Vancouver) and Scott Godin (Lethbridge).
From lyrical classics by Granados and Satie, to new inter-cultural music by Samandari, and ensemble members Oliver and Razmi, you are in for a treat.
Musicians: Joy Yeh (harp), Dailin Hsieh (guzheng), Ali Razmi (tar), John Oliver (guitar)
