JUNO-nominated pianist Katherine Dowling makes her nanoSTAGE debut with a set of music for solo keyboard by Alice Ping Yee Ho, Reena Esmail and Isang Yun.  Dowling has become a significant proponent Ho's, having recorded many of her major works for piano since 2022.

Dubbed "an iconic team," Jacob Clewell and Sasha Bult-Ito of The Ezra Duo return to Piano Lunaire's moon series in a set featuring two Toronto composers, a generation apart: Alexina Louie and Liam Ritz. The Ezras offer music for violin and piano this time round: Ritz's Aka-tombo and Nocturne (a world premiere), complemented by Louie's Music for Piano.  🦫 🌕
