A special highlight presentation includes the world premiere of In Spirit, in honour of National Indigenous Veterans Day, performed by Chor Leoni and the Vancouver Youth Choir, with music by Indigenous composers Corey Payette, Russell Wallace, and Alexis Vollant; as well as a workshop presentation of Payette’s latest musical, On Native Land.
