SUMMARY:pro series: HOME COMING CONCERT: PRAIRIE PUNK\, Nicole Lizée & Guests
DESCRIPTION:Scenario: \nA karaoke machine is glitching. It rewinds\, stops without warning\, jumps between sections. Pitch and speed fluctuate. The tape is damaged – chewed up by the machine. The singer tries to keep her composure and keep up with the machine. An unorthodox amplified orchestra holds it all together. Brandon’s fall concert season begins Friday\, September 12th with a new music tour-de-force featuring BU alumni and guest musicians from across Canada. Prairie Punk brings composer Nicole Lizée back to her prairie roots to present two brilliant large-ensemble works. Karappo Okesutura Vol.3 presents a warped\, hilarious karaoke performance of Canadian and Australian pop hits including Olivia Newton-John\, INXS\, Loverboy\, Alanis Morissette\, Corey Hart and ACDC\, as reimagined by Saskatchewan-born elite composer Nicole Lizée. An 11-piece ensemble features Lizée herself returning to her alma mater alongside new music A-list musicians from Winnipeg\, Brandon\, Saskatoon and Montreal including BU School of Music faculty and alumni celebrating the school’s past and present. Prairie Punk also features Not Seeing Is A Flower\, the unique cello concerto written by Lizée for cellist/curator Leanne Zacharias. Supported by the Canada Council for the Arts and BU Research Council\, the work is for cello soloist and video\, accompanied by an eclectic amplified ensemble of singers\, bassists\, percussionists and a mysterious doppelgänger. \nPerformers: \n\nHelen Pridmore & Sarah Hall\, vocals\nNicole Lizée\, turntables\, electronics\, video\nEric Platz & Ben Reimer\, drumkits & percussion\nSteve Raegele\, electric guitar\nLeanne Zacharias\, ‘cello\nJennifer Thiessen & John Sellick\, viola\nMer Johnson & Crystal White\, double bass\nSean Irvine\, saxophone & clarinet\nEverett Hopfner\, piano & keyboard\n\nCo-presented by Brandon Chamber Players https://brandonchamberplayers.ca/ \nBU Homecoming Team; BU School of Music and in partnership with Groundswell New Music (Winnipeg) \nAdmission Fee: \n$20 at the door.
