John Burge is a professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, and his outstanding work as a composer over the years was recognised in 2013 with a Queen’s University Award for Excellence in Research and Scholarship. He is renowned for his choral music and, while he is best known in Canada, his works have been performed throughout the US and Europe.
John Burge’s music deserves the widest possible appreciation and this release with the finest of soloists together with the excellent Thirteen Strings Chamber Orchestra provides an ideal point of entry for those discovering his work for the first time.
Principal flautist of the National Arts Centre Orchestra (NACO) of Canada since 1992, Joanna G’froerer enjoys an exciting career as an orchestral player, chamber musician, soloist and educator.
