Erica Roozendaal: New Music for Accordion
On Saturday June 24, Open Space, in collaboration with the Vancouver InterCultural
Orchestra (VICO), welcomes accordionist Erica Roozendaal. Joining us here
from the Netherlands, Erica will perform a concert featuring music written by composers
from Canada and Scandinavia. Joining Erica on the concert will be Vancouverite Mark
McGregor, accompanying her on flute. The concerts will feature compositions by Juliet
Kiri Palmer, Erkki Jokinen and Bent Sørensen and include a world premiere by Farshid
Samandari.
It is always fantastic collaborating with VICO. They bring world class artists to the West
Coast who work to find intersections between music from their country and Canadian
music. Ericas concert will be no exception, says Christopher Reiche Boucher, Open
Spaces New Music Curator. She will perform music from Canada and Scandinavia as
well as showcasing what the accordion is capable of in a contemporary context.
The concert will be taking place at James Bay United Church at 511 Michigan Street. While
in Victoria, Erica will also be workshopping pieces by local composers at the University of
Victoria on Sunday June 25, starting at 10:30 am. For more information, or to submit your
own piece (deadline June 13) check out www.openspace.ca.
