Suzie LeBlanc, Soprano
Alexander Weimann, Harpsichord
Chloe Meyers, Violin
Grégoire Jeay, Traverso & Percussion

Four of Canada’s finest musicians in Baroque music will be here to present a program of music by Purcell and Bach as well as traditional tunes. Transverse flute player Grégoire Jeay comes from Montreal to join three Vancouver-based musicians. Suzie LeBlanc is the artistic and executive director of highly-regarded Early Music Vancouver. Alexander Weimann is the artistic director of the Pacific Baroque Orchestra, and his wife Chloe Meyers is concertmaster of the PBO.

Acadian soprano Suzie LeBlanc has been recognized with the Order of Canada and four honorary doctorates for her contributions in the area of Baroque music. Her seventy recordings include a Grammy Award and a CINI Award (Italy). She has toured on five continents and was invited to sing for the president of Czechoslovakia, Vaclav Havel.

While he is much in demand as a harpsichordist, Alexander Weimann is also highly esteemed as a conductor of Baroque orchestras having led such groups as Les Voix Baroques, Tempo Rubato, and the Portland Baroque Orchestra. His recording with soprano Karina Gauvin and the Arion Ensemble won a Juno Award in 2013. He is noted for his skills at improvisation on the organ and harpsichord.

Chloe Meyers enjoys a busy career as either concertmaster or soloist with groups like Arion Baroque Orchestra, Victoria Baroque, and Ensemble Les Boréades, among others. She teaches young artists in the Baroque Orchestra Mentorship Program at UBC. Meyers performed double concerti by Vivaldi together with Italian star Enrico Onofri and the PBO in our series in 2018. 

While his specialty is the Baroque flute, Grégoire Jeay also plays the recorder and various international flute styles. He has performed with such distinguished groups as Tafelmusik and Ensemble Caprice. Jeay is also a composer of note. Tafelmusik commissioned him to write a triple concerto for flute, violin, harpsichord, and orchestra. 

Suzie and her colleagues have prepared a program entitled: Wish You Were Here – Love, Longing, and Travel.

Four simple words—wish you were here—have echoed across centuries, scribbled on postcards, tucked into letters, and held quietly in the hearts of those far from home. Whether written from afar or in moments of longing, they reflect our human desire for connection.

From the expressive music of John Dowland and Henry Purcell to Acadian folk songs and echoes of Pink Floyd, join us for an evening of music and words exploring themes of love, distance, and the ties that bring us together.
