Prairie Debut Presents: Jâca

Dekker Centre for the Performing Arts

Cross vivid, folk-inspired melodies with two well-travelled jesters and you’ll find Jâca (ZHĀ-ka), a guitar and clarinet duo with exuberant energy, charm and wit. Clarinetist Wesley Ferreira and guitarist Jaxon Williams define their style as world music fused with personality and are unafraid to experiment with that which captures their fancy – fresh takes on classics as well as composition from emerging artists. They invite you to wander with them through a program ranging from the flirtatious tangos of Piazzolla to a striking Romanian-influenced new work by Canadian composer Candace Bouchard.
