SOLD-OUT Belgian Cello Octet

What sounds better than a cello? Eight cellos! Catch this magical Belgian ensemble as they tour through a wide musical territory ranging from Tchaikovsky to Piazzolla and Nino Rota. When played together with others, the beauties of this instrument add up, giving a unique, full and exceptional sound. This concert opens with students from the Scotia Suzuki School of Music performing Antonio Vivaldi’s Concerto in A minor, Op 3, No. 6, 1st Movt arranged by T. Nachéz.

Presented by Cecilia Concerts and Alliance Française Halifax, with the participation of the Scotia Suzuki School of Music.

Qu’y a t-il de plus beau qu’un violoncelle? Huit violoncelles! Cet instrument, le plus proche de la voix humaine, est probablement un des seuls qui supporte d’être multiplié, confronté à lui-même; mieux, les qualités s’additionnent, forment un son unique et plein, permettant toutes les fantaisies de répertoire, de Tchaïkovski, en passant par Piazzolla et Nino Rota.
