SUMMARY:201 Summer Concert: CAR287
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the 201 Portage Plaza on Thursdays in June\, July\, and August for our summer concert series from noon to 1 pm. (Rain location: 201 Concourse). \nWhere plaid shirts meet leather jackets and Lululemons\, you’ll find CAR287—a band that defies genre gravity. With influences ranging from Muse to The Tragically Hip (with John Fogerty somewhere in between)\, this Winnipeg-born group started in 2014 as a basement cover band and grew into a powerhouse of original rock. \nAfter years of gigs—from backyard BBQs to full-blown galas—and a pandemic-fueled writing spree\, they ditched the covers and cracked open a Pandora’s box of riffs\, hooks\, and unexpected lyrical turns. Their debut album Through the Lens\, dropping September 20\, 2025\, is a genre-blending journey recorded at Winnipeg’s iconic Private Ear Studios. \nExpect booming vocals (Jay)\, ripping solos (Travis)\, thunderous bass (Terry)\, and relentless drums (Ryan). CAR287 is living proof that cover bands can evolve – and no\, they won’t play Here for a Good Time (again)\, even though it’s a good song.

SUMMARY:Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra: Mahler & Schumann
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of contrasts and connections with music that ranges from the festive to the sublime. The concert begins with Oscar Morawetz’s “Carnival Overture\,” a lively piece that captures the spirited festivities of a carnival. This overture is packed with energy and charm\, setting the stage for a delightful evening. \nNext\, Canadian-born\, Berlin-based cellist Bryan Cheng returns to perform Robert Schumann’s Cello Concerto\, a piece known for its lyrical beauty and innovative structure. Cheng’s previous performances with the WSO have been met with enthusiastic acclaim\, and his interpretation of Schumann’s concerto is sure to be a highlight of the season. \nKnown for his sold-out Carnegie Hall debut at 14 and performances with renowned orchestras worldwide\, Cheng continues to captivate audiences with his dynamic interpretations\, extensive recital highlights\, and critically acclaimed albums\, showcasing his exceptional talent and dedication to his craft. \nThe concert concludes with Mahler’s Symphony No. 4\, a work that combines the classical charm of Haydn with the emotional depth of Beethoven. Winnipeg’s own soprano star Lara Ciekiewicz joins the orchestra for the symphony’s final movement\, singing of a child’s vision of heaven—a serene and joyful conclusion to the evening. \nAcclaimed for her “tour-de-force performance” in Manitoba Opera’s Susannah\, Ciekiewicz is celebrated for her dynamic and moving portrayals across genres\, earning her the reputation of an artistic chameleon. Her versatility and transformative ability shine through in her captivating performances on stage.

SUMMARY:Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra: Dvorák & Stafylakis
DESCRIPTION:Experience a world of musical contrasts with Dvorák & Stafylakis\, a concert that bridges the past and present with powerful compositions. The evening begins with Hanna Havrylets’s Chorale for Strings\, a poignant tribute to the late Ukrainian composer.

Known for her love of heavy metal and classical music\, Pine brings a unique intensity to this groundbreaking piece. Stafylakis\, the WSO’s Composer in Residence\, draws from his background in progressive metal to create a concerto that defies classical music conventions and resonates with contemporary audiences. \nThe concert concludes with Dvorák’s Symphonic Variations\, a masterpiece of melodic invention and orchestral color. This piece showcases Dvorák’s ability to transform a simple theme into a series of intricate and beautiful variations while demonstrating the versatility and skill of the WSO.
