SUMMARY:Ottawa Chamberfest | Katherine Dowling: The Elegy Project
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning Canadian pianist Katherine Dowling brings The Elegy Project to Chamberfest\, delivering a solo piano performance of musical meditations on mourning\, loss\, grief – and life and love. Says Dowling\, “my goal as a contemporary musical artist is to cultivate…a desire for deep and meaningful musical experiences that\, while not always “pretty\,” do always reflect the threads of our common humanity.” For The Elegy Project\, Dowling collected and learned over 100 elegies and filtered them down to a beautiful programme that traverses eras and cultures. \nDowling views the artist’s role as one of service to others\, requiring sincerity\, vulnerability\, empathy\, curiosity\, compassion\, and the courage to venture into dark places of the human experience. This led her to The Elegy Project\, in which Dowling hopes to create for her audience a sense of interconnectedness through her own musical responses to our shared human experiences. Like so many others\, Dowling lost loved ones during the COVID-19 pandemic. “In my grief\, I learned and played elegies by composers from eras and cultures different than my own. The time I spent with these diverse works fused my daily life at the piano with my daily processes of grieving.” Join Dowling for an experience she hopes will be an “antidote to the fragmented\, superficial\, and consumerist messaging that pervades twenty-first century life.”

SUMMARY:Ottawa Chamberfest | Introducing Viano Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Praised for their “huge range of dynamics\, massive sound and spontaneity\,” (American Record Guide) the young Vianos won First Prize at the 2019 Banff International String Quartet Competition and are the current Nina von Maltzahn String Quartet-in-Residence at the Curtis Institute of Music. Formed in 2015 at the Colburn Conservatory of Music in Los Angeles\, the Vianos have performed internationally and\, in their formative years\, received an unbroken streak of top prizes before any of the members turned 20. In 2019\, unable to tour\, Canadian Viano member Lucy Wang (violin) began sharing music over social media\, attracting old and new classical music fans alike with over 50 million views and 500\,000 followers worldwide. At their Chamberfest debut\, The Viano String Quartet will perform Smetana’s folky string quartet From My Life and music by Piazzola\, Pulitzer Prize-winner Caroline Shaw\, and Chamberfriend Kevin Lau.
