Melancholiac: The Music of Scott Walker

Incubated at SummerWorks four years ago, this work finally receives its full premiere. Melancholiac is an evening celebrating the music of maverick musician Scott Walker, from his teen idol years with the Walker Brothers to his introspective takes on Jacques Brel to his final album, Soused. Bringing together the interpretive talents of Gregory Oh & Adam Paolozza, Melancholiac - part concert, part spectacle, part existential talk-show - will span Walker’s incredible career which came to a close with his passing earlier this year.

Accessibility note:

The event's venue, 918 Bathurst, is not currently wheelchair accessible due to stairs (two half-flights to enter the performance space, and one flight to access the washrooms).
