About the series
I started The Keyboards in Recital series in 2019 as a showcase of music for instruments with keyboards. The first two instances included music for marimba, piano, and organ in various combinations. After many delays relating to the pandemic, the third concert was moved online, broadcast from the upper hall of the Crescent Arts Centre at Crescent Fort Rouge United Church. It featured a program of exclusively marimba/vibraphone duets, performed with Caroline Bucher, and supported by Groundswell.
Keyboards in Recital 4 marked the series' return to in-person audiences, and was held at the Winnipeg Conservatory of Music. The theme of this program was marimba+piano, including music for solo marimba, shared marimba duet, and marimba/piano quartet. KIR4 was sponsored by Michael Nesbitt and Groundswell.
