Time to PLAY!

We’re almost done our 2 week quarantine in beautiful Blue Rocks, NS!

It’s been such a privilege to stay here in this cozy yellow house right on the shore. We arrived the first day just in time to catch the most sublime sunset <3, and then was immediately hit by the exciting experience of the Nova Scotia hurricane the next day! I had the perfect view of the waves crashing onto the rocks right from my bedroom window, taking in the drama of the stormy skies and whistling wind while wrapped in blankets and sipping tea…

The atmosphere is so special. I really missed being close to the water, and the change in scenery has been very inspiring - almost as much as my electric ‘superNATURAL’ Steinway piano.

And with all that - we’re finally so close to performing again! After countless unexpected hurdles thrown our way, we’re so grateful for the wonderfully dedicated team at LAMP and all their patience, resilience, and hardwork to make this next month of music happen.

Here’s what we’re playing the next 2 weeks at the Lunenburg Academy of Music Performance!

*because the Government of Québec announced that Montréal is becoming a red alert zone from October 1 to October 28 due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases, we had to postpone our concerts, “Song of Praise”. This was a very difficult yet necessary decision for us, given how hard our team has worked to put this project together.

However- we’re very thankful and excited to be offered the opportunity to presented our program here at the Lunenburg Academy of Music Performance, Nova Scotia. This event will be live-streamed! Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm and support and we will be sure to return to Montreal as soon as circumstances allow. There shall be light, poetry, and live music again one day! Meanwhile, please stay safe!
