SUMMARY:pro series: Carlo Muscat\, saxophone
DESCRIPTION:The evening’s program\, composed by Carlo Muscat: \nTotoro; Cleopatra; Holler; The Body Is Only Light; Lisovyk; Arrietty; Everyone Looks Happy; Lyra’s Sonnet \n  \nRecognised as one of the most promising voices on the European jazz scene\, Carlo Muscat’s reputation as a saxophonist\, composer\, and bandleader has flourished through collaborations with numerous outstanding European musicians including Tony Tixier\, Philippe Maniez\, Mátyás Szandai\, Mauro Gargano and Sandro Zerafa. His sixth album\, Hymns\, received critical acclaim\, with a four-star rating from Downbeat Magazine and a spot on their list of Best Albums of 2023. This acknowledgement signaled his development as an artist and his emerging role in contemporary jazz. An inventive improviser overtly embracing freedom of interpretation and a willingness to explore new musical territories\, Muscat’s discography now includes seven albums as a leader and numerous contributions as a sideman. Beginning with his 2014 debut release\, The Sound Catalogues\, each album has probed a different aspect of his sound and experimented with compositional and stylistic approaches\, reflecting his dedication to an ongoing pursuit of his musical vision. Originally from Malta\, Carlo is currently based in Kyiv\, Ukraine\, and has been the co-owner and director of the music venue and bar Storeroom\, located in Ta’ Xbiex (Malta)\, since 2019. His 7th album\, The Body Is Only Light\, was recorded in Kyiv in March 2024\, and is set to be released on October 25th 2024 on the American label ears&eyes Records. \nalso featuring Brandon University Music faculty: \nDiogo Peixoto – guitar; Marika Galea – bass; Eric Platz – drums \n  \n \nStarting his guitar journey at a young age\, Diogo Peixoto quickly immersed himself in various musical environments\, becoming a sought-after sideman across different genres. His involvement with the ‘Coletivo Orquestral’ alongside renowned musicians like Hermeto Pascoal\, Brandford Marsalis\, Arrigo Barnabé\, and Vinícius Dorin\, not only showcased his talent but also provided invaluable experiences. Diogo is also a proficient songwriter and singer\, with his compositions receiving recognition in several Brazilian song festivals. Characterised by spontaneity and intensity\, his guitar playing reflects a unique blend of influences\, showcasing a melodic sense and composition style enriched by Brazilian rhythmic nuances. Holding degrees in Popular Music\, Financial Management\, and a Master’s in Jazz Performance and Literature\, his academic background complements his practical expertise. Currently teaching at Brandon University in Canada\, Diogo continues to inspire and educate a new generation of musicians\, embodying a commitment to fostering creativity and musical excellence. \n \nMarika Galea (she/her) is an award-winning performer\, composer and writer from Toronto. Best known as a bassist\, her work explores the space between improvised jazz\, narrative songwriting\, and hypnotic soundscapes. She has supported artists across jazz\, pop\, rock\, indie\, hip hop\, new music and experimental genres including Terence Blanchard\, Cyrus Chestnut\, Ralph Peterson Jr.\, Rachel Therrien\, Jason Palmer\, L’Orchestre national du jazz de Montréal\, Basia Bulat\, Tim Kingsbury (Arcade Fire)\, Jake Clemons (E Street Band)\, U.S. Girls\, Geneviève Racette and Laura Niquay. Her collaborations have garnered nominations and wins for JUNO\, Golden Globe\, Academy\, Polaris\, Iris\, RIDM and HotDocs Awards. In 2017\, she earned a spot as one of CBC Music’s 35 best Canadian jazz artists under 35. She has taught at McGill University & Conservatory\, Berklee College of Music\, McGill Executive Institute\, Malta Jazz Festival\, Monterey Next Generation Jazz Festival\, Prince Edward County Jazz Festival\, McGill University School of Continuing Studies and the University of Manitoba – and is currently on faculty at Brandon University. \n \nEric Platz is a drummer whose creative work intersects with Jazz\, Americana\, North African\, and Contemporary Improvised music. As a member of singer Carrie Rodriguez’s band\, Eric toured extensively throughout North America\, appeared on “Austin City Limits”\, performed with Bill Frisell and Lucinda Williams\, and collaborated with producer Lee Townsend on the recording Love and Circumstance. Life After Life\, a recording featuring Eric’s compositions for clarinet\, cello\, bass\, and percussion\, was called “an extraordinary debut” by DOWN BEAT Magazine. Eric is an Associate Professor at Brandon University where he teaches drumset\, Jazz & Contemporary Popular Music\, and non-Western music traditions. \nWe recognize the support of Arts Council Malta in presenting this program. \nTickets are $20 for adults (no admission fee for BU and Conservatory students) and are available at the door.

SUMMARY:Brandon Chamber Players Concert: On the Brink of Peace
DESCRIPTION:CONCERT STARTS at 7:00 p.m.\, with a pre-concert talk scheduled for 6:15 p.m. \nJazz pianist and composer Witness Matlou  \npresents  \na suite of original music informed by his upbringing in South Africa’s townships. These areas on the periphery of a town or city have historically been used to uphold racially segregated living arrangements. There\, outside of Johannesburg\, Witness was surrounded by the sounds of Marabi\, Mbaqanga\, and gospel music. Protests songs echoed into South Africa’s political transition period into the late 90’s and 2000’s. The music stems from different cultural backgrounds that represent the demographic makeup of the townships\, where people were assembled from around the country. New forms of language and expression emerge forming a unique township lingo. The music is interpreted and processed in the context of life in the township and the socioeconomic conditions of the working-class. The township experience forms the basis for Witness’ musical background\, along with classical music\, and having moved to America to study Jazz. \n “I look to create music that forms an amalgamation of my life experiences\, the sounds of the languages I speak\, the people I’ve met around the world and the social conditions that I live in. Music to me means possibilities. It is where I find joy and a shelter that I wish to bring people in when life’s storms appear\,” says Witness. He is presently an assistant professor at Berklee College of Music in Boston\, USA. \nAlso featuring: \nJon Gordon\, saxophone; Marika Galea\, bass; Eric Platz\, drums \nTICKETS: $40 GENERAL\, $20 STUDENT \nStudents attend free with valid student ID at the door. Adult tickets can be reserved online at brandonchamberplayers.ca or by phone at (204) 724 6031. Tickets can also be purchased at the door\, although we appreciate greatly when tickets are reserved in advance. Cash\, credit\, and debit are accepted. \nhttps://brandonchamberplayers.ca/concerts

SUMMARY:Prairie Wires Summer Sound Series 4/4 — Brady Allard\, L'Alien\, Koda Maxon
DESCRIPTION:BYOL (that’s bring your own lawnchair) to Princess Park\, in the heart of downtown Brandon as the sun sets on the Prairie Wires’ Summer Sound Series. The air will be energized as Prairie Wires turns its focus on a showcase of Brandon University School of Music alumni.\nWHAT: Prairie Wires’ Summer Sound Series\, concert 4/4WHO: Brady Allard\, L’Alien\, Koda MaxonWHERE: Princess Park Stage\, at Princess & 8th. Brandon\, MBWHEN: Saturday August 17\, 2024 – 7:00 – 9:00 PM\n\n\n———————————-\nBrady Allard (Winnipeg\, MB) Brady Allard is a Métis composer and audio installation artist from Winnipeg\, Manitoba. With influences spanning electronic music\, composition\, and experimental sound design\, Brady creates immersive sonic environments that challenge music conventions.\nA lifelong musician and synthesizer enthusiast\, Brady earned a Bachelor of Music in Jazz from Brandon University in 2011\, where he discovered electro-acoustic composition. Since then\, he has embarked on a career as an audio installation artist\, focusing on immersive installations that explore the relationships between sound\, space\, and perception.\nBrady’s art is a tool for social commentary and critique of capitalist structures. His compositions incorporate class analysis and expose the ways in which power relations affect individuals and communities. Through his installations\, Brady challenges his audiences to engage with sound as a means of exploring complex themes and ideas\, using his art as a platform for meaningful dialogue and exploration.\nBrady’s compositions often incorporate field recordings\, found sounds\, generative algorithms\, and custom-built instruments\, revealing unique sonic textures and resonances. His work is a testament to his commitment to using his art as a means of effecting social change\, and inspiring the exploration of what is possible through sound.\n———————————-\nL’Alien (Erickson/Winnipeg)L’Alien is a new highly melodic collaboration between Leila Kristianson (trumpet) and Iain Edye (synths\, drum machines)\, who met when they performed in different projects at Brandon’s Drone Day event in 2022. Incorporating ambient soundscapes and drones\, downtempo grooves\, and occasional forays into Celtic fiddle tunes\, their inaugural performance at the Prairie Wires’ Summer Sound Series will be a continuous semi-improvised journey of music\, playing off each other in the spirit of spontaneity\, exploration\, and fun.\n\nHailing from Erickson\, Iain Edye is a drummer\, synthesist\, songwriter\, and vocalist-in-the-car\, whose other current projects include the classic rock stylings of Route Ten Collective and his original synthpop solo project\, acidbasement.\n\nCurrently residing in Winnipeg\, Leila Kristianson is a multi-instrumentalist with a focus on trumpet. She holds a Bachelor’s in jazz trumpet performance from Brandon University School of Music\, and currently teaches trumpet\, as well as jazz and theory concepts at middle and high school levels. She performs in several bands and multiple genres\, and also works as a freelance musician.\n———————————-\nKoda Maxon (Brandon)Koda Maxon (they/them) is a vibrant Canadian Vocalist\, Artist and Composer based out of Brandon\, Manitoba. Their compositional works focus on contemporary techniques and the use of multimedia to explore topics of identity\, nature\, and connectivity. Koda’s goal as a composer is to explore the art of sound through the creation of sonic works that allow the listener to open up\, think deeply\, and see the world from a different perspective. They find inspiration in topics of intense emotions\, their relationship to nature\, spirituality and queer Identity. Koda is a playful composer who loves to explore new harmonies and extended techniques.\n———————————-\nMark Your Calendar! August 17\, 2024\, at 7:00 PM. Join us at Princess Park in the heart of Brandon as the sun sets on another season of inspiring instrumental experimental sounds!\n———————————-\nThis series is supported by a generous grant from the Brandon Neighbourhood Renewal Corporation.\nAll Prairie Wires’ Summer Sound Series Concerts are 100% free\, 100% family-friendly\, and 100% safe spaces.\nThe Prairie Wires’ Summer Sound Series takes place on Treaty 2 territory\, the traditional lands of the Cree\, Oji-Cree\, Anishinaabe\, Dené\, and Dakota\, and is the homeland of the Métis Nation.\nIn case of rain this event will move to Section 6 Brewing Co. 1126 Princess Street\, Brandon\, MB.
