Reviews
Land’s End Ensemble hosted internationally‐renowned percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie its 20th Anniversary Celebration at the Bella Concert Hall, Mount Royal University, in a wrap‐up recital of epic proportions capping off the new hall’s exciting début series.

“...the music is rigorous, lively and imaginative; his program notes mention influences of Estonian folk music…”
