Reflections

Saina Khaledi, santur

Katie Rife, percussion

This intimate evening of music in one of Vancouver’s most unique and acoustically sensitive venues features introspective and exquisite works by female-identifying composers for Iranian santur and percussion. 

Saina Khaledi performs her original works for santur, while percussionist Katie Rife showcases her multi-year journey of commissioning Vancouver composers to write works especially for her. Tickets are limited, so reserve in advance!

 

festivELLE is a biannual celebration of female identifying musicians and composers that showcases innovation and social change through music. Recently named Classical Ensemble of the Year at the Western Canadian Music Awards 2024, Allegra is of the only all female professional orchestras in the world, and creates relevant, inclusive,  impactful, and innovative live performances. This year, the theme of festivELLE is Migration, Displacement, and Belonging, with each thoughtfully curated performance reflecting elements of the lived experiences of each of us, whether we are immigrants, First Peoples, minorities, or simply finding our way. All self-identifying Indigenous community members are admitted to Allegra events free of charge.
