Nova Scotia’s favourite orchestra will be performing new works by composer Tim Brady (Montreal), rising Blackfoot composer Sonny-Ray Day Rider (Alberta), JUNO award winning composers Nicole Lizée (Saskatchewan) and Jocelyn Morlock (Vancouver). The world-premiere of Brady’s electric guitar concerto with jazz guitarist Geordie Haley is followed by premieres of works by emerging Halifax composers Jeremie Boudreau and composer-violin soloist Shanti Sivarulrasa. James Shaw (Truro) was the recipient of the 2024 Paul Cram Creation Award. SNS and Upstream celebrate his orchestral debut at this extraordinary concert of new music.
