Michael Snow and Jesse Stewart at the National Gallery

Thursday, March 18 - 8 to 9 p.m.
Admission: Free

  • Michael Snow - pianist, visual artist, filmmaker
  • Jesse Stewart - composer/percussionist

A concert of freely improvised music featuring acclaimed visual artist, filmmaker, and pianist Michael Snow in performance with Carleton University professor, composer, and percussionist Jesse Stewart. Together, they will weave a rich tapestry of creative improvised music that pushes the boundaries of contemporary music. 

At 80, world-class artistic polymath Snow is still making headlines with his films and installation art, which often feature his own music (and performance), while rising phenomenon Stewart has collaborated with such noted artists as Pauline Oliveros and George Lewis.

CBC Radio 2 will record the concert for future broadcast on The Signal.
