SUMMARY:Lester Quitzau w/ Sandro Dominelli - Presented by Cosmopolitan Music Society
DESCRIPTION:Multi Juno Award winning roots music artist Lester Quitzau\, and one of Canada’s most creative\, tasteful and multi award winning drummers – Sandro Dominelli will be performing at Old Strathcona Performing Arts Centre (OSPAC) 8426 Gateway Boulevard in Edmonton on May 24. \nPresented by the Cosmopolitan Music Society\, the duo will perform new material as well as fresh interpretations of songs from Lester’s 35 year career span. Many of Quitzau’s followers have watched his career with love and loyalty in what began as a solid traditional folk/ blues foundation apprenticeship in the funky working-class bars of Alberta’s capital city\, to that which has grown into an eclectic and constantly evolving musical journey. \nHis unique style and fluidity on slide\, acoustic and electric guitars\, coupled with well crafted songs and warm vocals\, are the fruits of this musical journey. \nHaving played together in many situations\, beginning 29 years ago with the then touted supergroup\, ‘ A Love Supreme’ \, Lester Quitzau and Sandro Dominelli\, will again explore the space between the notes\, as much as the notes themselves\, locking into open spontaneous grooves where anything is possible. \nTickets are $30 (including taxes + service charges) | Bar / concession will be available. \nWhen: Friday\, May 24th doors at 7 pm\, show at 7:30 pm \nWhere: 8426 Gateway Blvd
