SUMMARY:Amour Courtois: Medieval Meets Jazz at Dënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom
DESCRIPTION:Amour Courtois: Medieval Meets Jazz\nMatthew Baker\, barytone; Efrén López\, multi-instrumentalist; Baptiste Bailly\, piano & arrangements\nCo-presented with Whitehorse Concerts\n—\nWed\, March 4\ndoors at 7\, Pre-show chat at 7:30\, concert to follow\nPay-what-you-want – kiacyukon.square.site \n– \nRuntime: Approximately 100 min \nAmour Courtois is a bold and evocative musical project led by French jazz pianist Baptiste Bailly\, reimagining 14th-century French songs through the lens of contemporary improvisation. Inspired by the enduring emotional resonance of medieval melodies\, Bailly collaborates with Matthew Baker on the baryton and Efren López on the hurdy-gurdy and ouds\, crafting an anachronistic yet striking soundscape. Their repertoire – featuring works by Machaut\, Binchois\, and Lescurel – bridges centuries and highlights the timelessness of human expression. \nAmour Courtois treats medieval songs not as static artifacts but as living works. While the original melodies are respected as closely as possible\, with the aim of preserving their essence\, the musicians change the settings\, time signatures\, chords\, context\, and costumes. Improvised or newly written passages are integrated into the pieces\, like moments of intimate expression nourished by the eclecticism of their personalities and influences\, revealing a touching and spontaneous musical craftsmanship\, boundless and timeless. \n– \nThanks to our funders – Government of Canada\, Yukon Government\, Canada Council for the Arts\nand special thanks to Northern Vision Development / the Downtown Hotel

SUMMARY:Elisapie at Dënäkär Zho / Klondike Institute of Art & Culture
DESCRIPTION:Sun\, March 22 at Dënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom (full band show)\nCo-presented with the Dawson City Music Festival and Yukon Arts Centre \nDoors open – 7:30 / Music – 8:00\nTickets on sale here\n– \nElisapie’s unconditional attachment to her territory and her language\, Inuktitut\, remains at the core of her creative journey. Born and raised in Salluit\, a small village in Nunavik which is only accessible by plane\, Elisapie is an emblematic Canadian Inuk singer-songwriter. Since winning her first Juno Award in 2005 with her band Taima\, Elisapie’s body of work has been praised many times. \nOn September 15th 2023\, Elisapie unveiled Inuktitut\, her fourth solo record. On this album\, the Inuk artist covers ten classic rock and pop songs ranging from the 1960’s to the 90’s translated into Inuktitut\, her mother tongue. The result is an emotional\, autobiographical soundtrack where each song is associated with a loved one or an intimate story. Acclaimed by audiences and critics alike\, Inuktitut is the artist’s second album to land a shortlist nomination for the Polaris Music Prize. Its success also earned Elisapie a Juno Award in the Contemporary Indigenous Artist of the Year category\, as well as five awards at the 2024 ADISQ Gala\, and allowed her to play over 70 concerts in Canada\, the U.S. and Europe. She also just got nominated for this year’s upcoming Juno Awards for Best Album of the year\, as well as for Best Adult Alternative Album of the year. \nAside from her musical career\, Elisapie is known for creating and producing documentaries and the first Canada-wide broadcast TV show to celebrate the National Indigenous Peoples’ Day\, called Le Grand Solstice. She was also honored with a Canada Post stamp. Always surrounded by the best musicians from the Montreal indie and folk scenes\, Elisapie makes her culture resonate with finesse by mixing modernity and tradition. \n— \nFunded by Canada Council for the Arts\, Government of Canada\, and Yukon Government
