On the program, excerpts of film music, concert excerpts and studio footage.This chamber opera for voice, electric guitar, piano, percussion, saxophones, string quartet and tape tells the life of doctor Norman Bethune.Produced by Dylan Bell and Voyces PastThistle & Jewel, with vocalist Rebecca Campbell and composer/pianist Carol Ann Weaver, is a collection of Weaver's songs based on poetry of internationally known Mennonite-rooted poets Julia Kasdorf, Jeff Gundy, Ann Hostetler, and the young Canadian Kiera Schneider.Eve Egoyan, specializing in the works of living composers, releases her first CD the things in between. The selections, all world premiere recordings, range from minimalist to experimental, from the lushly complex and abstract to compositions which recall a more standard classical repertoire.This disc includes both studio performances on acoustic instruments and sampled sounds "performed" by a computer.
