Victoria Summer Music Festival III: Voces Intimae String Quartet
add to outlook add to google calendar remind me
Jean Sibelius: Quartet in D minor Op. 56 “Voces Intimae”
Edvard Grieg: Quartet no. 1 in G minor Op. 27
The two couples (David Stewart and Paule Préfontaine; Yariv Aloni and Pamela Highbaugh Aloni) in the Voces Intimae Quartet first met while teaching at the Courtney Youth Music Centre in the early 1990s. Throughout the years and connecting when Paule and David would be out west visiting family, they have shared as colleagues and friends the many turns of life. When Paule and David (happily for Pam and Yariv) decided to move back to the area after David’s retirement from his post as concertmaster of the Bergen Philharmonic in Norway, the four reconnected and enjoy preparing and performing a few concerts together when their schedules permit. They have performed several times as part of the Norman Nelson Series in Sooke and for the Music at Wentworth Villa Series online during the Covid-19 pandemic. The quartet’s name, taken from the heart of Sibelius’ string quartet, evokes their mutual love for music and their long-lasting friendship.
