City Spaces: Fairmont Palliser

With Calgary Phil Musicians

While our concert hall has been closed, the Calgary Phil has been exploring some of our city’s iconic downtown buildings and recording solo and duet performances featuring Calgary Phil musicians for three new free virtual concerts. City Spaces brings you music from the top of a modern skyscraper, the stunning interior of a brutalist-era gallery, and the grand ballroom of a historic hotel.

The performances are available for viewing for 30 days following the premiere. Online access is free with registration — sign up for all three concerts now!
