Fragmented Forms

Labyrinth Ontario will be returning to Guelph with an innovative nimble ensemble unlike anything they have presented before. Experience a performance informed by medieval European and Makam music.

Fragmented Forms features Jelly Ear musicians Cory Harper-Latkovich and Sara Constant, and Labyrinth Ensemble musicians Aysel Taghi-Zada and Araz Salek. Expect an improvisational feast for your ears!

Sophia the Friend is a harpist and wordsmith hailing from the rugged coast of Wales. A genre chameleon, she has come under the tutelage of envelope-pushing harpists and composers, including Deborah Henson-Conant and Rhodri Davies. Weaving poetry and melody, tradition and innovation, Sophia the Friend welcomes you into the sonic landscape of “hiraeth” - nostalgia for that which is not yet known.

Labyrinth Ontario is the Toronto-based chapter of a worldwide organization founded by Ross Daly in Crete. Their mission is to create a Canadian hub for mediterranean and west-Asian modal music though educational, performance and archival streams.
