In honour of African Heritage Month, join us and Joy Bullen for a special musical performance.

Second generation Canadians with roots in the Caribbean and Africa; Rashaan Rori Allwood, pianist / instrumentalist, and Kathryn Patricia Cobbler, Loop pedal violist, will premier their original compositions, with the outstanding soprano voice of Nadine Anyan.

Rashaan and Kathryn will take you on a musical journey with pieces that reflect upon elements of the Caribbean immigrant and African diaspora experience. A program of original ambient jazz, folk, and classical compositions performed against a background film of images and events from life in the Caribbean and in Canada, exploring themes of being raised within multiple cultures and redefining beauty against a North American colonial landscape.
