PROGRAM NOTES

“The real art occurs in the imagination. Then the work begins. The tools are whatever we can get, beads or pixels, hunting bows or an orchestra.” (Buffy Sainte-Marie)

The arrangements I composed for Veda Hille and the CBC Radio Orchestra are homage to this spirit, homage to a great artist never given enough credit, whose art and activism will be always inspiring. (Giorgio Magnanensi)

Dedicated to Veda Hille

Buffy Remix was written in December of 2006 in Roberts Creek, B.C.

Commissioned by CBC Radio
