Vancouver Island University's Arts and Humanities Colloquium Committee and the Music Department invite everybody to a presentation and concert:

Acclaimed jazz composer and performer Brent Jarvis and award-winning vocalists Melinda Whitaker and Anne Schaefer will engage the public in a discussion of the creative process. Using the Brent Jarvis Quartet’s latest album "Daedalus—Poetry by Dorothy Livesay" as their starting point, the musicians will explore philosophical and psychological perspectives on creativity in music, poetry, and the visual arts.

Please note that the Brent Jarvis Quartet will perform "Daedalus—Poetry by Dorothy Livesay" the same evening, January 29, at 8:00 p.m., at the Malaspina Theatre on the Nanaimo Campus.

Join us for an intimate, reflective, and intellectually engaging series of presentations followed by discussion and refreshments.
