VICO composers and musicians present a sneak preview of the ensemble's next major concert, "Planetful of Sound" (March 14th, 2009 at the Chan Centre Telus Studio Theatre), including new pieces written by student participants in VICO’s first ever high school workshop (co-sponsored by Vancouver Pro Musica). The presentation - the third in the VICO's annual six-part educational series "Music of the Whole World: Explorations of World Music Cultures By Canadian Composers" - will include music listening, discussion and live performance, providing a fascinating window into world music cultures and the process of creating music that builds bridges between them.
