The event Music & Stories is a book launch and performance with concert pianist Robert Silverman, professor and director emeritus of the School of Music at the University of British Columbia, who has appeared with orchestras worldwide and with every major orchestra in Canada. The author of the recently released memoir Schumann, Vienna and the Cat – which interweaves parts of his life with that of Robert Schumann – will be in conversation with David Lemon, founder of the Concerts in Care program, which brings world-class music to residents of palliative and long-term care facilities. The event takes place at the Jewish Community Centre of Greater Vancouver on Dec. 1, 7 p.m. To register, go to jccgv.com/event/music-stories.
