Soprano Kiiri Michelson and pianist Frank Chu will perform at Hornby Island鈥檚 Community Hall today at 8 p.m.
The program will include songs by Faur茅, Grieg, and Schoenberg, as well as piano works by Brahms, Debussy, and Schubert.
Michelsen recently completed the masters program in vocal performance at the University of Victoria.

The concert is presented by MADDWEve (Musical Antidote to Dark, Dreary Winter Evenings), a group of Hornby Island residents intent on bringing live performances to the island during the winter.
