SUMMARY:RHM & VICO Music of the World: Concert Series
DESCRIPTION:Traditional Iranian & Armenian Music\n\n\n\nFeaturing Ramin Jamalpour on Piano & Sina Ettehad on Kamancheh (Iranian Spike Fiddle)\n\n\n\n\n\nRoedde House Museum in collaboration with the Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO) is pleased to present our musical series “Music of the World”.  \n\n\n\nJoin us in the parlour of Roedde House Museum as we take chamber music back to its originally intended intimate setting. We hope that through this concert series you will be introduced to a diversity of musical instruments and styles reflective of the diversity of the Canadian experience as well as a new appreciation of different types of classical music! \n\n\n\nRefreshments will be provided.  \n\n\n\nThis month’s concert features traditional Iranian & Armenian music performed by Ramin Jamalpour on piano and Sina Ettehad on the Kamancheh (Iranian Spike Fiddle). Experience a selection of original repertoire\, as well as Iranian and Armenian folk songs arranged by Ramin and Iraj Sahbayi. The performance will include improvised connecting sections and mood painting\, adding depth and texture to the music. We hope this performance opens new worlds to you as we continue our exploration of Music of the World! \n\n\n\nArtist Bios \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRamin Jamalpour – Piano \n\n\n\nComposer\, pianist\, and artist\, Ramin holds an ARCT Diploma in Piano Performance from the Royal Conservatory of Music with First Class Honors and a Bachelor in Visual Arts. He was a pianist of the Tehran Symphonic Orchestra and Choir\, Radio and Television Choir in Tehran for ten years. \n\n\n\nFrom 1996 to 2000\, he completed composing and conducting courses under Prof. Aghajanian\, Altounian\, and Moradian in Armenia. At the same time he had several piano recitals\, one of them recorded and broadcasted on the German Television network. \n\n\n\nHis performances include recitals and concerts in Vancouver\, Ottawa\, Toronto\, Los Angeles\, and Tehran. \n\n\n\nIn 2019\, he published 12 virtuoso pieces for piano; this year\, he has published a collection of 14 Iranian Folk songs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSina Ettehad – Violin\, Kamancheh\, Composition \n\n\n\nSina Ettehad began his musical journey at the age of 12\, learning violin and music theory under the guidance of Master Atabaki. Four years later\, he delved into the ancient Iranian fiddle\, the Kamancheh\, studying with Master Ardeshir Kamkar. After moving to Canada\, Sina continued his musical education at Vancouver Community College (VCC). As a core member of the Gomaan Ensemble\, Sina is actively involved in several musical groups\, including the Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra\, Kereshmeh Ensemble\, and Zaryab Ensemble\, which fuse Persian and Flamenco styles. He also plays in the Wind Band\, known for its blend of Jazz and Middle Eastern music. Over the past eight years\, Sina has composed and performed for various film and theatre productions. A significant milestone in his career came in 2010\, when he and the Kereshmeh Ensemble performed with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra — marking the first collaboration of a Persian ensemble with the VSO. This concert featured the renowned Iranian singer Ali Reza Ghorbani and received outstanding reviews. Shortly thereafter\, Sina and the Kereshmeh Ensemble toured Canada\, concluding with two live recording sessions for CBC. In recent years\, Sina has initiated a fusion music series called “Fusik.” He is also passionate about teaching and currently offers lessons at his private studio in North Vancouver. \n\n\n\nAbout Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO): \n\n\n\nThe Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra\, founded in 2001\, was one of the first professional concert orchestras devoted specifically to performing new intercultural music on a grand scale. It is currently the only ensemble of its kind in Canada\, and one of only a handful that exist in the world. The VICO brings together musicians and composers from many cultural and artistic communities in the Greater Vancouver area\, including Chinese\, Taiwanese\, Japanese\, Indian\, Persian (Iranian)\, Latin and South American\, Vietnamese\, African\, North American and European. The ensemble includes Western strings and winds (violin\, viola\, cello\, contrabass\, oboe\, flute\, clarinet) alongside Chinese erhu\, sanxian\, zheng\, and sheng/suona; Persian kamanche\, tar/setar\, and tombak; Vietnamese dan bau; percussion from many world music traditions; and a variety of other instruments as required. \n\n\n\nSince repertoire for the VICO’s unusual and diverse instrumentation does not already exist\, creating new work is an integral component of all our programming. Developing new commissions (over 50 new Canadian works since 2001\, and counting!) provides a necessary framework for bringing musicians and composers together to learn from each other\, in a uniquely collaborative process. We build bridges of imagination. We approach diversity as a fascinating challenge and a creative call to action. We create and perform music that transcends borders and breaks down barriers\, modeling a pathway for integrating non-Western traditional instruments\, sounds and techniques into contemporary Canadian classical music. \n\n\n\nSince its inaugural performance in 2001\, the VICO has developed and performed over 50 new intercultural pieces by ground-breaking Canadian composers such as Elliot Weisgarber\, Trichy Sankaran\,Jin Zhang\, Mark Armanini\, Farshid Samandari\, Moshe Denburg\, Nikki Carter\, Ed Henderson\, Larry Nickel\, Jeffrey Ryan\, Rita Ueda\, Lisa Cay Miller\, Jim Hiscott\,   Lan Tung\, Michael O’Neill\, John Oliver\, Grace Lee\, Neil Weisensel\, Joseph “Pepe” Danza\,  Niel Golden\, Stephen Chatman\, Rodney Sharman\, Dorothy Chang\, Neelamjit Dhillon\, Jennifer Butler\, Kara Gibbs\, and Leslie Uyeda. \n\n\n\nReminders: \n\n\n\nTicket holders should arrive no later than 10 minutes before showtime to secure seats.Seating is limited. \n\n\n\nParking: \n\n\n\nLimited street parking is available on Robson and in the West End. Parking spots are scarce in the neighbourhood\, so give yourself some extra time or use public transportation. (Closest Skytrain station: Burrard. We are on the #5 Robson bus route). \n\n\n\n\nPURCHASE TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDONATE & SUPPORT:\n\n\n\nDonations collected go towards the continuation this Series and directly supports the artists we engage.

SUMMARY:RHM & VICO Music of the World: Concert Series
DESCRIPTION:Persian Origins: Persian Traditional Trio\n\n\n\nFeaturing Saina Khaledi on Santour\, Ali Razmi on the Tar\, and Ali Sajjadi on the Oud\n\n\n\n\n\nRoedde House Museum in collaboration with the Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO) is pleased to present our musical series “Music of the World”.  \n\n\n\nJoin us in the parlour of Roedde House Museum as we take chamber music back to its originally intended intimate setting.

Delicate melodies with a profusion of  ornamentation give the listener a window into an ancient world where these instruments would be played in private\, away from the public eye. Persian Origins audibly demonstrate Persian traditional instruments are the forefathers  of the piano (Santour) and guitar (Tar) and the program presented  shows many facets of musical character similar to western music from the baroque era:  in range\, in dynamics and in deeply personal thoughts being played out in transparent intimate detail. \n\n\n\nArtist Bios \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSaina Khaledi – Santour \n\n\n\nSaina Khaledi was the winner of the Iranian Santour Festival in 2003. She received her diploma from Iran’s most prestigious music school\, the Tehran Music Conservatoire.

Saina has performed in Iran\, Austria\, Japan\, Netherlands\, USA and Canada often as a composer\, soloist or with groups such as Music On Main\, Vashaan Ensemble\, The Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO)\, BC Chinese Music Ensemble (BCCME)\, Vancouver Symphony Orchestra (VSO)\, Vancouver Opera Orchestra\, Richmond choir\, Medusa Society\, National Orchestra of Iran Conservatoire\, Mellal Orchestra and Hamnavazan Ensemble. Shealso took part in different music productions and recordings. She currently teaches Santour at Capilano University\, Persian Culture and art institute (Percai)\, Nazanin Academy\, as well as private lessons. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAli Razmi – Tar \n\n\n\nAli Razmi is a gifted tar and setar player who received his Master’s Degree in music from The Art University Of Tehran in 2006. Since his arrival to Canada in 2007\, he has been a roster member of the Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra\, and has done workshops and concerts with well-known musicians from all around the world. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAli Sajjadi – Oud \n\n\n\nAli Sajjadi is an Iranian-Canadian oud player based in Vancouver BC. He has been studying setar and oud since the 1990s and has had joyful collaborations with great local and international musicians. Ali has dedicated a portion of his musical career towards Persian folk music\, participating in various festivals\, live performances and recordings with renowned musicians worldwide. In 2004 he published a book titled“10pieces for Barbat”\, for advanced barbat and oud players. Oud is what Ali loves; this instrument is played in a number of countries with diverse cultures and backgrounds; he believes the peaceful and magical sound of oud is a unifying element bridging all these deep\, rich cultures. \n\n\n\nAbout Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO): \n\n\n\nThe Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra\, founded in 2001\, was one of the first professional concert orchestras devoted specifically to performing new intercultural music on a grand scale.

SUMMARY:VICO Music of the World: Silk Road Music – Chinese and Latin Musical Explorations
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy world music from the Vancouver Inter-cultural Orchestra live on the Roedde House porch!  \n\n\n\nCome join us outdoors on the Roedde House porch on Sunday August 11 from 4-6 pm with a free performance by Silk Road Music from Vancouver Inter-cultural Orchestra featuring: Qiu Xia He – pipa\, Andre Thibault – guitar\, Phil Belanger – percussion. \n\n\n\nA Chinese and Latin musical exploration with spicy rhythms and funky pipa\, this fusion of traditional and contemporary world music all set to a danceable percussive groove is music that sounds like Vancouver looks! The Silk Road Music ensemble has been wowing Vancouver audiences for 30 plus years with their passionate commitment\, refreshing sounds performed sunny side up!! Come and enjoy this afternoon outdoors! The performers will be on the side porch of Roedde House Museum which faces the lawn space of Barclay Heritage Square Park. Donations collected will go towards the continuation of our programming and directly supports the artists we engage. \n\n\n\nMORE ABOUT THE FEATURED ENSEMBLE\n\n\n\nSILK ROAD MUSIC \n\n\n\nAs recently as the mid-1990s\, stereotypes of Chinese music as atonal and inaccessible dominated “mainstream” North Americans’ perceptions of this country’s sound. The idea of blending Chinese music with popular Western styles was seen as absurd\, if not impossible. Silk Road Music changed all that. The ensemble pioneered the kind of Chinese-Western musical fusions that one now hears in acts ranging from The Sparrow Quartet to Yo Yo Ma’s Silk Road project. \n\n\n\nAt the heart of Silk Road Music is the unstoppable artistic vision of its founder\, Qiu Xia He\, a one-time music teacher at China’s Xian Academy of Music and professional pipa player with the Shaanxi Music and Dance troupe. While performing with the ensemble at the Vancouver Folk Music Festival\, she made the dramatic decision to stay in Canada\, and was welcomed in by a household of Irish musicians on Hornby Island. It was there that the seeds of her extraordinary cross-cultural musical experimentations were planted. \n\n\n\nQiu Xia founded Silk Road Music in 1991 with two other B.C.-based Chinese musicians: erhu player Shirley Yuan and zheng player Li Zhou\, later replaced by ruan player Zhimin Yu. From the very beginning\, the goal was to create a new musical hybrid born of its members’ dual experiences in China and Canada. The ensemble blended Chinese folk and classical music with Celtic\, Latin\, Arabic\, Aboriginal\, jazz\, and blues music. It developed two exciting educational programs to bring world music to school children\, and in 2001\, it created a groundbreaking recording and performance project that paired Chinese and European-Canadian vocalists for bilingual duets of Chinese folk songs. Along the way\, the group earned a Juno nomination\, two West Coast Music Awards\, two Canadian Folk Music Award nominations\, and countless enthusiastic reviews. www.silkroadmusic.ca \n\n\n\nThe performers will be on the side porch of Roedde House Museum which faces the lawn space of Barclay Heritage Square Park.

SUMMARY:VICO Music of the World: Tzimmes Trio
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy world music from the Vancouver Inter-cultural Orchestra live on the Roedde House porch!  \n\n\n\nCome join us outdoors on the Roedde House porch on Sunday July 7th from 4-6 pm with a free performance by The Tzimmes Trio from Vancouver Inter-cultural Orchestra.  \n\n\n\nOriginal in concept and sound\, Tzimmes (pronounced: tsi’- mess)\, occupies a niche of its own in Jewish Music. Over the 35 years of its existence\, they have concertized in Canada\, the U.S.\, Mexico\, and England\, at Folk Festivals and Communal Events\, for Jewish and non-Jewish audiences alike. Tzimmes has always been committed to presenting Jewish Music in its many facets – everything from Middle Eastern (Mizrahi/Hebrew) to Eastern European (Klezmer/Yiddish) to Mediterranean (Sephardi/Ladino)\, and contemporary musical vernaculars. New settings of traditional repertoire alternate with completely original creations.The concert trio consists of:Moshe Denburg – Lead Vocal\, Guitar\, Band LeaderYona Bar-Sever – Electric Bass\, Guitar\, Vocals\, Hand PercussionSaul Berson – Saxophone\, Clarinet\, Flute —–Moshe Denburg (Voice\, Guitar\, Band Leader)\, originally from Montreal\, came to the west coast in 1982. He has traveled and studied music worldwide\, including Israel\, where he lived for 7 years. He has been a musician all his life\, singing and songwriting in Jewish and Middle Eastern idioms extensively. He is an accomplished composer\, and his works have been performed\, recorded\, and broadcast all over the world. As Composer/Arranger for Tzimmes\, Moshe has given the group its overall musical direction since its inception. \n\n\n\nYona Bar-Sever (E. Bass\, Guitar\, Voice\, Djembe) was born and raised in Jerusalem\, Israel\, where he was a much sought after Bass player. For a number of years he earned his livelihood playing nightly at the prestigious Khan Club in Jerusalem\, accompanying in a wide variety of styles\, from Rock to Hassidic to Middle Eastern to Israeli Folk. He moved to Canada in 1975 and has lived in Vancouver ever since. Today he divides his time between music making and personal counselling. Whether on Guitar\, Electric Bass\, Vocals\, or Hand Drums\, his Salonikan roots lend Tzimmes a Mediterranean and Sephardic mood. \n\n\n\nSaul Berson (Alto Sax\, Clarinet\, Flute) is a multi-instrumentalist who has been exploring an extensive array of stylistic ground for the past 25 years. His musical abilities span a wide range\, and include klezmer\, jazz\, and inter-cultural music. A core member of Tzimmes\, Saul lends to the band a tremendously versatile instrumental resource. He is an accomplished jazz composer as well\, having released several highly acclaimed albums. \n\n\n\nThe Tzimmes Story Tzimmes had its humble beginnings in 1986 in Victoria\, B.C.\, and for about 4 years played for enthusiastic audiences within and outside the Jewish community. They bid adieu to each other in 1990\, but as mazl (luck) would have it\, two of its members\, namely Moshe Denburg and Julian Siegel\, moved to Vancouver. In the fall of 1991\, together with a longtime friend of Moshe’s from Jerusalem\, Yona Bar- Sever\, Tzimmes was re-formed. Soon after they were joined by Vocalist Myrna Rabinowitz\, and Egyptian Percussionist\, the late Adel Awad. Over the past decade the Tzimmes family has been expanded to include several more outstanding musicians – Phil Belanger on Drums\, Saul Berson on Saxophone\, Clarinet\, & Flute\, Doug Stephenson on Bass\, and Amy Stephen on Accordion & Keyboard. \n\n\n\nDefinition of a TzimmesTzimmes (pronounced: tsi’- mess)\, is a Yiddish word for a sweet culinary concoction made variously of stewed carrots\, honey\, raisins\, and prunes; it is considered to be the perfect complement to the main course of a Jewish feast. In another\, more humorous connection\, Jewish people are warned not to complicate a simple matter\, with the adage: “Don’t make me a big Tzimmes!” (It is safe to say that the warning is usually ignored!).Read more on their website: www.tzimmes.net \n\n\n\nThe performers will be on the side porch of Roedde House Museum which faces the lawn space of Barclay Heritage Square Park. Donations collected will go towards the continuation of our concert series and directly supports the artists we engage. \n\n\n\nDONATE:\n\n\n\nSupport of the series is greatly appreciated\, either through one-time\, monthly\, or annual donations. You can do so by donating HERE.

SUMMARY:Jazz on the Porch: Zhambai with Curtis Andrews and Kurai Mubaiwa
DESCRIPTION:Jazz heads outdoors for our Jazz on the Porch summer series\, starting Tuesday June 27th at 7pm! \n\n\n\nZhambai at Roedde House Museum\n\n\n\nFeaturing Curtis Andrews and Kurai Mubaiwa\n\n\n\nJoin us for a captivating musical experience featuring Curtis Andrews and Kurai Mubaiwa\, performing as Zhambai. This dynamic duo will take you on a rhythmic journey through the traditional and contemporary sounds of Zimbabwe’s Shona people\, centered around the ancient mbira (thumb piano). \n\n\n\nCurtis Andrews\, based in Vancouver\, BC\, is a multifaceted drummer\, composer\, and ethnomusicologist. Originally from Carbonear\, Newfoundland\, Curtis began his musical journey at 14 by teaching himself to play the drumset. His deep curiosity for rhythm\, culture\, and spirit led him to study the musical traditions of Ghana and South India extensively\, under the mentorship of renowned artists including his mridangam guru\, Trichy Sankaran. Curtis holds a BFA from York University and a PhD in Ethnomusicology from the University of British Columbia. He co-leads a Ghanaian drum and dance ensemble\, collaborates with diverse musicians across various genres\, and leads his own Afro-Indian-World-Jazz group. His work with Kurai Mubaiwa brings the hypnotic and spiritual music of the Shona people of Zimbabwe to audiences\, blending traditional and contemporary compositions. Curtis resides on the unceded territories of the Musqueam\, Squamish\, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations\, and is passionate about fostering love\, understanding\, and excitement for life through music. \n\n\n\nKurai Mubaiwa is one of Canada’s leading mbira players. The mbira\, an ancient thumb piano\, has been used for spiritual purposes in Zimbabwe for centuries. Its sound is reminiscent of water dropping\, spirits talking\, ancestors singing\, and blood pumping. Kurai has mastered both the traditional repertoire and composes his own contemporary music for the mbira. In Curtis Andrews\, he has found an able and willing ally. As a duo\, these multifaceted musicians bring a message of joy and healing to themselves and their audience alike. \n\n\n\nThe performers will be on the side porch of Roedde House Museum\, which faces the lawn space of Barclay Heritage Square Park. Donations collected will go towards the continuation of our Jazz Series and directly support the artists we engage. \n\n\n\nCome and experience the enchanting sounds of Zhambai\, where ancient rhythms meet contemporary creativity\, fostering a deeper connection to music and spirit. Your donations will directly support the artists and help continue the beloved Jazz Series at Roedde House Museum. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to witness the mesmerizing blend of mbira music and world rhythms! \n\n\n\nDONATE:\n\n\n\nSupport of the series is greatly appreciated\, either through one-time\, monthly\, or annual donations.

SUMMARY:RHM & VICO Music of the World Concert Series: Water Dragon Music - Classic Chinese Poetry & Music
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the parlour of Roedde House Museum as we take chamber music back to its originally intended intimate setting. We hope that through this concert series you will be introduced to a diversity of musical instruments and styles reflective of the diversity of the Canadian experience as well as a new appreciation of different types of classical music! Refreshments will be served in the dining room at the end of the concert. \n\n\n\nOur June VICO: Music of the World concert series will see the return of Water Dragon Music: Classic Chinese Poetry & Music which premiered at Roedde House in 2023. This enchanting fusion of modern classical music\, traditional Chinese instruments\, and ancient poetry transforms the Roedde Parlour into another world entirely\, so don’t sleep on it if you missed its debut last year!Program Description:  \n\n\n\nWater Dragon Tune is from an ongoing collection of Chinese poems set to music by L. Mark Armanini. The power of these ancient poems is in the common and daily experiences being shared between the time they were written (347-1200 AD)\, and the present. The music\, for the most part is contemplative\, the Mandarin text is reflected and framed by the erhu in a dialogue of text image being shadowed by the erhu melodies and emotions. The celestial harp adds a sense of the suspension of time and space\, drawing the listener closer to the rich sounds of the spoken Mandarin with its natural tonal inflections. The effect is to bring the poems into the here and now\, as if the poet is speaking directly to us from ancient times.  \n\n\n\nAbout Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO): \n\n\n\nThe Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra (VICO)\, founded in 2001\, was one of the first concert orchestras devoted to performing new intercultural music on a grand scale. It is currently one of only a handful of such professional ensembles that exist in the world. The VICO brings together musicians and composers from many cultural and artistic communities in the Greater Vancouver area\, including Chinese\, Taiwanese\, Japanese\, Indian\, Persian (Iranian)\, Latin and South American\, Vietnamese\, African\, North American and European to create what has been described as “the United Nations of Music” (CBC Radio)\, and “music that sounds like Vancouver looks” (The Georgia Straight). The Vancouver Sun has called VICO “a world music super-group.” \n\n\n\nVICO strives to be a fresh and relevant voice in the contemporary music of our city\, our province and our country. The ensemble builds bridges of imagination\, approaching diversity as a fascinating challenge and a creative call to action. Its work is to make connections\, between performers and audiences of all ages and backgrounds\, across the Lower Mainland\, throughout Canada and the world; to create and perform orchestral music that transcends boundaries: cultural\, social\, political\, geographical. Since its inaugural performance in 2001\, VICO has developed and performed over 50 new intercultural pieces by ground-breaking Canadian composers. www.vi-co.org \n\n\n\nReminders:Ticket holders should arrive no later than 10 minutes before showtime to secure seats.Seating is limited. \n\n\n\nParking: \n\n\n\nLimited street parking is available on Robson and in the West End.
