This has been our view behind the scenes yesterday preparing for the upcoming concert. We are so excited for you guys to see our first ever virtual concert! Be sure to tune in and join us November 29th at 7pm on Facebook live for some beautiful 1945 pieces composed after the war ended.

Looking to brighten your day? Check out this absolutely gorgeous piece, beautifully played by the talented violist Florin Simioanca (bio: https://4thwallmusic.com/florin-simioanca/). Here’s what Florin has to say about it: When people think of Romanian classical music, the composer who most frequently comes to mind is George Enescu. While Enescu was an internationally renowned composer and violinist, he encouraged other Romanian composers to write music that expressed the Ro...manian national character. One composer who embodied this mission was Valile Filip. His work encompasses the spirit and the folklore of the Romanian people. The first part of his Romanian Suite is called Doinind, which means singing a song specific to the Transylvanian region. This type of song evokes Romanian peasant music, melancholic in nature, which reflects the hardship of years of foreign occupation. The second part of the Suite, Taraneasca, has a lively character. This fast-paced melody might be performed at village dances or celebrations. I chose this piece because I wanted to introduce this music to new audiences. While originally written for violin, I transposed it for the viola as I felt the character of the piece translated well to the timbre of the viola. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/8Bd9pimszDQ?rel=0 #yqg #4thwallmusic #4thwallmusicwindsor #quarantunes #4thwallmusicathome

Hello, we hope that everyone is staying well...and cool! Since we began, 4th Wall Music has been a platform for music and discussion that draws you in and leaves you thinking. In celebrating the aliveness of classical chamber music we have also welcomed to the stage music of all genres from jazz to world music, beatboxing, fiddle and more dawing on the wealth of talent in our city! Our next instalment of "musicians in their living rooms" might stretch your listening landscape... a bit. We are proud to feature a fantastic local audio engineer musician, singer, songwriter, David Cyrenne. You might know him from what Eyes On Windsor calls, "Windsor's favourite philanthropic super-group, The S'Aints": https://eyesonwindsor.com/event/saints-christmas-concert/ The Song Dreams of Youth, originally written & recorded by David & his band Feal many years ago has now been rewritten & rerecorded from scratch. David performed on all the instruments: guitar, bass, keyboards, drums/percussion programming & vocals. He mixed and mastered the recording in his studio, Surreel Sound. David assembled the video with a combination of stock & footage he captured. Focusing on his music creation in his newly renovated studio during the pandemic, David’s own lyrics inspired a new birth to Dreams of Youth. The song is about Mother Nature’s cry for help. Isolation has helped heal the Earth. This is a dedication to all essential workers.
