Cascade Peaks ChamberFest, presented by the Langley Community Music School, is pleased to announce the lineup of concerts taking place during its inaugural season from June 21 to 23, 2024.

Guest artist faculty, which includes resident ensemble the Borealis String Quartet, will perform works by Beethoven, Brahms, Dvořák, Gilliand, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Ravel, and Schubert, including the latter composer’s Cello Quintet in C Major, D. 956. Of special interest is a newly commissioned piece from composer-in-residence Marcel Bergmann, which recently had its world premiere at the Langley Community Music School.

Joining the Borealis String Quartet as faculty guest artists will be violinist Jonathan Crow, concertmaster of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra; cellist Roman Borys, founding member of the Gryphon Trio; Juno award-winning clarinetist James Campbell; and pianist Libby Yu, member of the renowned Aurora Piano Trio.

In addition to faculty guest artist concerts will be a series of recitals given by participants of the Emerging Artists Program, accomplished young musicians on track to become Canada’s next generation of professional concert artists.
