Vancouver ensembles Turning Point and Gamelan Gita Asmara share the stage for an evening of new and classic music from Canada and Bali. Showcasing contemporary fusions of Western and Indonesian music, the evening also features live dance and video projections. Two of the most dynamic ensemble traditions on the planet will jet you from continent to continent in flashes of sonic colour. Highlighting the program are the premiere of Resolution, a new work by Michael Tenzer for small orchestra powered by Balinese drumming, the spectacular Kebyar Gandrung danced by Putu Widiantini, and newly commissioned video and dance with dancer Ziyian Kwan, choreographer Jennifer Mascall and videographer Yun Lam Li. Part of the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival.
