As the Prairie Sons, cellist David Liam Roberts and pianist Godwin Friesen embody the expansive, nuanced perspective of their home landscape in their concert program. The two award-winning musicians met at the Royal Conservatory’s Glenn Gould School of Music, and recognized a kindred spirit in each other. Both hail from the prairies, both began performing alongside family members, and both have been named to CBC’s list of Hot 30 Classical Musicians Under 30.
Their program includes sonatas by Poulenc and Rachmaninoff, a composition by Godwin, and a unique work quoting the music of Joni Mitchell.
