Pacifika was recently named one of "Revelation-SRC" and Espace Musique's top world music acts. The Vancouver based group is making a new kind of global pop, music that nods to its diverse international influences, while forging its own unique voice. Jazz infused and Latin tinged, marked by gently flowing melodies, deep grooves, waves of cracking percussion and the occasional burst of exhilarating guitar noise - Pacifika's comfortable, complex sound defies categories, creating soothing soundscapes held together by Silvana Kane's smooth, intimate vocals.
One of the most accomplished composers of the 20th Century, Burt Bacharach dominated the music scene in the 1960s and 1970s, with 52 Top 40 hits. The master of memorable melodies.
From the 2008 Ottawa International Chamber Music Festival featuring Canadian composers Katie Agocs, Jonathan Berger, Gary Kulesha, and Harry Somers.
