Songs for a Winter’s Night – featuring Gordon Lightfoot’s song of the same name – will include music from our country’s iconic singer-songwriters. Guest artists, husband and wife duo Shanté van Horlick and Michael Mackinnon, will sing a set of their favourite artists: Jane Siberry, Bruce Cockburn, Leonard Cohen and more. Young musician Caelan Hill adds the sounds of cello to the concert. Six Christmas carols are included – all of them arranged for choir by Canadian composers. The concert’s finale is Joni Mitchell’s River, which is now considered one of Canada’s favourite Christmas songs.
