The Vancouver Bach Family of Choirs is hosting Behind the Keys, its annual fundraising event, at the Annex on February 13 at 7:30 pm.
Leslie Dala returns to lead an intimate recital the evening before Valentine’s Day, featuring a program of romantic piano works. Audience members are invited to support the choirs in style by indulging all their senses with music, wine, chocolate, and optional charcuterie.
This fundraising event is the perfect setting for a Valentine’s date, an elevated evening with friends, or a corporate outing to treat a team. Tickets can be purchased individually or by tables of four, and are eligible for tax receipts of differing amounts. Optional charcuterie (with meat, vegetarian, or vegan options) can be prebooked during online checkout up to one week prior to the recital. The dress code is black-tie optional.
