Join us for a celebration of world music! The Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra presents an ensemble of musicians who introduce audiences to different cultures through their experiences, discoveries, and travels. Come hear music featuring the the Pipa, Spanish Guitar, Middle Eastern Lute Asian Flute, and World Percussion.

Through composition, performance and educational outreach, the VICO serves as a voice for Canadian composers and musicians of diverse backgrounds, and fosters the creation of musical works that fuse and transcend cultural traditions. Join us for a performance from the talented Qiu Xia He 何秋霞, André Thibault, and Phil Belanger— then stick around for a lecture to learn about their instruments! Questions welcome!
