    Welcome to the Indian River Festival and some of our featured concerts.

    Duo Gelato & Robert Kortgaard
    Friday, July 2
    Classical tenor and virtuoso violinist Peter De Sotto and four time World Champion accordionist and pianist Alexander Sevastian form a unique and thoroughly entertaining duo. The pairing of these two seasoned performers with Artistic Director Robert Kortgaard, will take you on a musical journey around the world - with personal anecdotes that will have everyone laughing out loud. Repertoire ranges from Neapolitan favourites, to Opera arias, Irish folk songs, all the way to the American jazz classics. Instrumentally the two will leave you breathless with their pyrotechnical wizardry on multi instruments including violin, voice, mandolin, accordion, bandoleon, and grand piano. Every audience will be screaming for more Duo Gelato!

    Isabel Bayrakdarian
    Friday, July 16
    Isabel Bayrakdarian burst onto the international opera scene after winning first prize in the 2000 Operalia competition founded by Plácido Domingo. Since then she has performed in many of the world's major opera houses and concert halls. She is admired as much for her stunning stage presence as for her exceptional musicality, and she has followed a unique career path that is all her own. 'One of the most expressive voices in opera today'. (Globe and Mail)

    Quartette
    Sunday, July 25
    Since their debut in 1993, the four members of Quartette have been both publicly and critically acclaimed for their lush harmonies and delightfully diverse repertoire. Cindy Church, Caitlin Hanford, Gwen Swick, and Sylvia Tyson are seasoned singer/songwriters whose influences range from blues and gospel to folk, country and gospel. 'Superb! Female harmony vocals don’t come any purer or sweeter' (Tandem)

    David Myles
    Friday, August 6
    David Myles is a fresh force on the Canadian entertainment landscape. The winner of the 2009 ECMA Folk Recording of the Year Award, his trademark enthusiasm and likeability make David an instant favorite with audiences. Creativity, vocal versatility, and musical dexterity all shine through...his music is a powerful and stylish blend of jazz, blues, folk, gospel and pop influences.
