OTTAWA — There are not many musicians who can boast of having played Ottawa’s blues, jazz and chamber music festivals, but fast-rising Ottawa singer-songwriter Kyrie Kristmanson will be able to add that accomplishment to her résumé Tuesday at Saint Brigid’s Centre, when she joins the Afiara String Quartet for the premiere of a new song cycle at the Ottawa Chamber Music Festival.
It’s one of several collaborations at this year’s festival between the classical and pop worlds. Others include a performance July 30 by the Art of Time Ensemble, in which the musicians will perform a piece by Korngold and singer-songwriters who include Danny Michel will perform tunes inspired by Korngold’s music.
