The cello’s rich, expressive voice takes centre stage in this powerful opening to the Cello Festival, reflecting the instrument's dual nature — rooted in the depths of the earth yet simultaneously reaching skyward.

Since 2011, the International Cello Festival of Canada has been bringing renowned cellists and artists from around the world to Winnipeg for an unforgettable celebration of music. Here, we're pleased to present the immense talents of Colin Carr, Denise Djokic, Santiago Cañón-Valencia, Matthias Bartolomey, Cameron Crozman, and Inbal Segev to celebrate the opening of the Festival.
