The Immigration Suite is a collection of ten tangos that examine different facets of life as an immigrant. The overarching narrative follows a somewhat analogous journey to that of seasonal changes and personal growth. Astenia means “weakness”, and it illustrates the challenges that come from health issues and loss.
Ultimately, this suite is about resilience and letting go of the past, and tango offers a unique medium to showcase the sense of finding solace in the face of despair.
Brandon Chamber Players
Kerry DuWors (Violin)
Catherine Wood (Clarinet)
Laura Jones (Cello)
Chris Jones (Double Bass)
Luis Ramirez (Piano)
The creation of this suite was generously funded by the Ontario Arts Council.
