About The Concert
DUO MAJOYA (organist Marnie Giesbrecht and pianist Joachim Segger) performs music from their new CD and more – an affectionate tribute to duets for piano and organ by way of six outstanding Canadian and American composers. The combination of a 9-foot Steinway and the mighty Davis Concert Organ allows for a kaleidoscope of unexpected textures and colours. This concert is testimony to DUO MAJOYA’s advocacy in championing and commissioning music for piano-organ duo, and will highlight their incredible energy, charisma, and talent!
(Recorded on the Davis Concert Organ at the Winspear Centre, Canadian Suite Celebrations CDs will be available for purchase in the lobby at the concert).
