If you attended the VSO concert in 2012 where Dina Yoffe played the Chopin Concerto No. 2, you know how fantastic a chopinist she is. In the upcoming recital she will show the influence of Chopin’s work on Scriabin by playing and alternating between Chopin and Scriabin Preludes. Single tickets for this event you can buy through us or the Tickets Tonight
Dina Yoffe will give a Masterclass on April 9 at the UBC School of Music (10-12 pm). Free admission.

Without a doubt, the highlight of the year is an appearance by Brazilian Nelson Freire, one of the world’s greatest living pianists. A CD of Freire's most coveted performances is included on Philips' acclaimed series, "Great Pianists of the 20th Century," released in 1999. Tom Deacon, the world famous executive producer of this series, is coming just for this concert from Toronto.
Nelson Freire will play a great program and we can't wait for this concert. Single tickets for this event you can buy through us or the Tickets Tonight.

Support Us

With the Canadian dollar at a record low, it will become increasingly more difficult for us to bring world-class artists to our Vancouver stage. As you know, ticket sales contribute to only a portion of our revenue, certainly not sufficient to cover the many expenses of putting on a concert. Can you lend us a helping hand by considering a donation to the society? Any donation, large or small, will be appreciated. And your donations will help us continue to bring you great performances by great performers. You can help us by sending a cheque to The Vancouver Chopin Society, #400 – 601 West Broadway, Vancouver, B.C., V5Z 4C2 or call us if you have any questions: 604.871.4450. On behalf of the Board of Directors of The Vancouver Chopin Society, we thank you for your continued support.
