QUARTETTE

Since their first appearance at Toronto's Harbourfront venue in the summer of 1993, Quartette has quickly become one of the most electrifying collaborations on the Canadian music scene. The four women combine formidable individual talents into an astonishing whole. The soaring harmonies and unique arrangements create a musical mosaic with flavours of folk, country, swing and bluegrass all solidly rooted in traditional music.

CIARA ADAM

with MIKE JANZEN (piano)

This elegant and evocative jazz vocalist engages the listener with beautiful emotion. She sensually and gracefully moves from the traditional with songs like 'Ne me quitte pas' and 'Besame Mucho' to the contemporary with the Beatles 'She's Leaving Home'.

Originally trained as an opera singer, Ciara has no difficulty moving from the more classical to the contemporary, in fact her trademark is rapidly becoming her ability to sing well in many styles.
