Music is what inspires Rosanna Burrill 鈥� and also what makes her inspiring.
Graduating with a Bachelor of Music degree, Rosanna is a musical polyglot. She鈥檚 as comfortable playing a fiddle in a pub, as she is a violin in a classical ensemble. She has made it to the finals of the Canadian Grande Master Fiddling Championships four times, and this year was selected as a violin soloist to perform with the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Symphony Orchestra for the annual Concerto Night.
Her talents even go beyond stringed instruments: Rosanna is also a singer, a tubist and a trombonist. She鈥檚 so adaptable that she鈥檚 participated in nearly every music ensemble at Dal, from the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Symphony Orchestra to the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Chamber Choir.
That range has helped Rosanna weave her way into the fabric of Halifax鈥檚 music community. She鈥檚 worked as a freelance fiddler and violinist, playing with bands and ensembles around the city in a variety of venues and musical genres, from experimental to jazz, to folk and classical. 听
