Birdsong: Morning Concert

At daybreak on Mount Tolmie, musicians of the SALT Experiment perform new miniatures inspired by British Columbia birds. Composed music mingles with birdsong, wind, trees and the sounds of the waking city.

Musicians of the SALT Experiment perform Catalogue d’oiseaux: BC Miniatures, a collection of new short works by young composers from British Columbia and beyond. The music is inspired by birds including the Coastal Vesper Sparrow, Northern Spotted Owl, Burrowing Owl, Yellow-breasted Chat, Western Meadowlark, Western Screech-Owl, Long-billed Curlew, Marbled Murrelet, Black Swift, Streaked Horned Lark and Short-tailed Albatross. This is a brief outdoor concert in a natural park setting. Admission by donation; advance registration required.
