A visit from Christmas past: 107 LIVE! with the Arminda Consort

Join the Winnipeg Early Music Society (WEMS) this weekend and experience the sounds and sights of Christmases of old, in a three-part series in the unrivalled Victorian parlour of Winnipeg's Dalnavert Museum. 

“Dalnavert has been very good to the Winnipeg Early Music Society,” says Kevin Scott of the Arminda Consort and member of WEMS. “We’re both historically minded so it was a natural fit.” 

 

 

Brightening Winnipeg winter nights with 'Lights On'

The Exchange District BIZ has announced a new winter festival that will focus on connecting Winnipeg's vibrant art scene and preserved history with lights on display.

Joy tuba world!

This holiday season, a troop of tubists and a union of euphoniums – maybe even a smattering of sousaphones – return to the Centennial Concert Hall to present some low-end good cheer.  

Manitoba Band Association’s “Tuba Christmas” takes place this Sunday, part of a broader brassy initiative.
