Toronto-based pianist Cheryl Duvall has established herself as one of Canada’s foremost contemporary music interpreters. A dynamic soloist and in-demand collaborator, Duvall has immersed herself in a wide variety of compositional aesthetics and collaborative endeavours.
In 2012, she co-founded the “adventurous and smartly programmed” (Musicworks Magazine) chamber group Thin Edge New Music Collective, commissioning over 70 works, mounting multidisciplinary productions, touring worldwide, and collaborating with leading artists including Sarah Hennies, Linda Catlin Smith, and Ensemble Paramirabo.
She has also worked with the likes of choreographer Peggy Baker, cellist Paul Pulford, film composer Darren Fung, and Essential Opera, and is currently commissioning new solo repertoire from several Canadian composers.
Her new CD, Harbour (Red Shift Records) is devoted to the complete solo piano music of Canadian composer Anna Höstman. Order it here.
