AMOR RENATUS: Ian Maksin in CalgaryJune 5, 7:00PM
Cardel Theatre, 180 Quarry Blvd
Tickets: 25-60 $: ianmaksin.com/calgary
Join renowned cellist, composer, and multilingual vocalist Ian Maksin for another amazing musical journey in search of light, love, and empowerment. This album unveils a collection of original instrumental compositions for cello, powerfully augmented into virtual orchestra through the use of loop pedal, and further expanded by sound of diverse percussion instruments ranging from trance-inducing grooves of the West African djembe to deep, heart-beat-like sound of the Mongolian frame drum. Inspired by music of Vivaldi, Mozart, Piazzolla and fused with traditional music from Africa, the Middle East and the Balkans, his new album “Amor Renatus” elevates you to a new realm outside the dimensions of time, place and identity, giving an opportunity to process deep, dark emotions, to ultimately rediscover peace and to find enlightenment and healing for the soul.
Ian Maksin has created his own unique style by blending elements of different genres and traditional music from around the globe in a new way using his cello as the main unifying force. He uses the loop pedal and other electronic devices to augment the sound of the cello and turn it into a virtual orchestra. He sings pop and traditional songs from around the globe in more than 30 and writes his own originals in at least four. He has released several albums of original music for cello inspired by his world travels and collaborations with native musicians.
Apart from performing the entire new album, in the second half of the concert Ian Maksin will perform other original instrumental compositions as well as traditional songs from Maksin's collection of over 200 songs in 31 languages.
Portion of the ticket and merch sales from this tour will be directed to benefit forwellbeing.org, a humanitarian relief organization in Ukraine.
