Massey Hall presents
Michael Kaeshammer
$49.50 (includes
Michael Kaeshammer’s upcoming CD)
|
Michael Kaeshammer has style and class in spades!
Classically trained in Germany, he fell in love with boogie-woogie
piano at 13. Four recordings later he has become Canada’s
brightest triple-threat combo of piano virtuosity, vocal ability
and charisma. The core of a Kaeshammer live performance is his extraordinary
ability to stir or quiet a large crowd using his piano and his sense
of humour. And when Kaeshammer boogies, look out – the room
gets jumping!

German Spanish Salon:
The nightingale's flight from South to North
Admission: $50, $40 seniors & students

Whose spirit is the most Romantic? The nightingale – the
19th century symbol of yearning, of unrequited love – sings
his sorrowful song in Spain as he does in Germany. From Granados
to Brahms, join our nightingale in celebration of the equally
restless flamenco and Sturm und Drang spirits, performed by baritone
Russell Braun, sopranos Monica Whicher and Lucia Cesaroni.
Co-sponsored by the German and Spanish Consulate Generals.
